Encryption regulation and cyber-offence liability prescribe secure methods while penalising abetment and attempts lacking specific punishment provisions.
New sections 84A, 84B and 84C establish government-prescribed encryption standards and ancillary criminal liability. Encryption methods may be prescribed for secure electronic use and promotion of e-governance and e-commerce. Where no specific punishment applies, abetment resulting in an offence attracts the punishment for that offence, while an attempt involving an act towards commission may attract up to one-half of the maximum imprisonment, the applicable fine, or both.
