Full Description
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Ethical Hacking Conference, eHaCON 2026 (AI and Law in the Cyber Era), the 7th international conference of its type that was held in Kolkata, India, in Jan 2026. The aim of eHaCON 2026 was to give an open forum for researchers, corporates, and students to discuss the implications of the emerging technologies in the cyber era and the regulatory side of it, for a secure society. The eHaCON 2026 had focussed on the new challenges and opportunities for the law created by the rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI). AI has significant implications for several broad societal issues, including investor protection, consumer protection, privacy, misinformation, and civil rights. Presently, AI is being used in various spectrums of the legal fraternity, such as drafting contracts, briefs, laws, regulations, and court opinions. It can also make enforcement and adjudication more effective. The dark side of AI and how cyber criminals are exploiting AI toward fraudulent behaviour have dealt with. In addition, cybersecurity aspects, design, architecture, and their integration with AI will make this book a most sought-after representation of the future.
