The Certified Cyber Law Practitioner (CCLP) is a program designed to equip professionals, students, and practitioners with comprehensive knowledge of India’s evolving cyber legal landscape. Developed in alignment with the Information Technology Act, 2000 and its 2008 Amendment, the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, and the new criminal law codes (BNS, BNSS, BSA), this course provides a complete legal, regulatory, and forensic framework for handling cybercrimes, digital evidence, and compliance obligations in India.

Spanning 16 intensive modules, the program bridges the gap between law, technology, and enforcement, empowering participants to understand not only the substantive provisions of cyber law but also their practical application in investigations, prosecutions, compliance, and litigation.

Participants will gain in-depth expertise in:

• Cyber offences under the IT Act, BNS, and related statutes.

• Intermediary liabilities, website blocking rules, cyber café regulations, log retention, and lawful interception frameworks.

• Digital & electronic signatures, certifying authorities, subscriber duties, and adjudication mechanisms.

• Data protection & privacy under the DPDP Act 2023, with global comparisons to GDPR/CCPA.

• Handling, preserving, and authenticating digital evidence, including Section 65B certification requirements and the role of the Examiner of Electronic Evidence.

• The role of digital forensics in jurisprudence, with live demos of disk/mobile imaging, cloud forensics, CSAM detection, synthetic media validation, and triage procedures.

• OSINT, threat intelligence, and social media analytics — and their legal sanctity as admissible evidence.

• Big Data analysis (CDR/IPDR/PCAP) and lawful application in investigations.

• Sectoral compliance frameworks in BFSI, SEBI, IRDAI, RBI, PFRDA, and other regulators, along with CERT-In’s directives.
