Property rights would be effective only when people assert them. This is not as easy as it appears with cyber space which has no boundaries. An interplay between both technical and legal theories can alone solve the disputes in cyberspace. The recognition of cyberspace as a distinct location has led to the emergence of Cyber Laws. Cyber Laws are dynamic in nature as they are based on technology. These laws help in evaluating the technological risks and seeking the remedies for civil and criminal wrongs committed in Cyber space. Legal and regulatory framework thus plays an important role in expanding e-commerce.
