Recent developments in Information and Communication Technologies (ICT)
have brought about changes that have revolutionalised traditional ways
of conducting business. While these developments in cyberspace bear
legal implications, legal regimes in some African countries such as
Tanzania have not kept pace with the changes in order to properly
regulate related activities happening under cyberspace. This volume
attempts to bridge the gap between the Law and ICT developments in East
Africa. It attempts to respond to questions such as: What is Cyber Law?
How are Parties Identified under a Relationship in a Cyberspace
Environment? How are Banking and other Cyber Payments Done? What about
Combating Cyber Crime and Managing E-Commerce? What is the Impact of ICT
on Intellectual Property Rights? And, how are Internet Domain Names
Regulated? The volume is a useful handbook for those who want to
understand the changing legal guidelines in relation to developments in
ICT.
