Which of the following actions is punishable under Section 66C of the Information Technology Act ?

  • A.Publishing a false e-commerce review
  • B.Identity theft involving fraudulent use of digital signatures or passwords
  • C.Sending bulk unsolicited emails
  • D.Failure to encrypt sensitive user data

Answer: B

Section 66C punishes identity theft involving fraudulent use of digital signatures or passwords.

Section 66C of the Information Technology Act punishes whoever fraudulently or dishonestly makes use of the electronic signature, password or any other unique identification feature of another person, with imprisonment up to three years and fine up to one lakh rupees.

False reviews, spam and failure to encrypt data are not what Section 66C addresses.
