Regulating Information and Network Security: Review and Challenges

Abstract

The rapid expansion of internet activities in daily life has elevated cyberattacks to a significant global threat. As a result, protecting the networks and systems of industries, organizations, and individuals against cybercrimes has become an increasingly critical challenge. This monograph provides a comprehensive review and analysis of national, international, and industry regulations on cybercrimes. It presents empirical evidence of the effectiveness of these regulatory measures and their impacts at the national, organizational, and individual levels. We also examine the challenges posed by emerging technologies to these regulations. Finally, the monograph identifies limitations in the current regulatory framework and proposes future directions to enhance the cybersecurity ecosystem.
