A Framework for the Development of Cybersecurity Legislation using a Decision Support System

Abstract

The dependence on technology is increasing and its influence is felt in practically every aspect of life. Its trend is expected to remain in the future. Unfortunately, its advancement has led to an increase in cybercrime and it is causing growing concern around the world, specifically for developing nations. Developed countries have implemented strong cybersecurity legislation to address this issue. It is imperative that all nations implement robust and uniform cybersecurity legislation to combat cybercrime, similar to that of advanced nations. For this purpose, A framework is essential to assist in creating an effective and robust cybersecurity legislation, which is necessary to combat the negative impacts of cybercrimes. For fulfilling this need, this research has proposed a framework for the development of cyber law using a knowledge-based decision support system.
