Electronic commerce Law in Iran

According to my study about business and commerce law in Iran I found that this part of internet law is more important in governments point of view . At least we have a well edited law draft for international trading through internet . Although it's not perfect yet but it can be a good step to reach to the higher steps of cyberlaw in my country .

Following link will give you an overview of electronic commerce law in Iran .

I am a genius not a thief!

28 years old Keyvan is a computer engineer who has educated abroad. He got arrested by the security guard of Iran 1n 9^th August 2010.

The reason behind his arrestment is that he accessed to bank security system and he transferred couple of million Tomans to his personal account.

Few days ago he contacted the Bank and said the security system of the bank got many problems and it’s easy to access, but the people in the bank thought that he is making a joke and didn’t take him seriously.

Therefore he decided to transfer the money to his personal account to prove them that the system is weak and the bank realized he transferred the money back to the Bank.

To defense himself at the curt he said: I never attended to steal something from the bank; I just wanted to say that I am a genius.

Also he did access to several government websites and warned them that your security system also got some problems

Researches for this person is still going on .and according to some sources its possible that the security administration use him as a consultant.

IRANIAN CYBER ARMY

There isn't enough information about this group and no body knows who are they , but some resources say that they are in connection with Iranian government.

This group attacked to several American and Chinese websites and also several Iranian web sites which have been against government. Some websites that they hacked are : Zamaneh radio , JARAS , Twitter and Baido .

In 2009 , Defense Tech one of the military and security institutes in U.S.A , according to the information that received from C.I.A said that Iranian cyber army is one of the strongest forces through five countries with the strongest cyber forces .

This institute also said that Iranian cyber army is working under the SEPAH's (an army group in Iran)authority .

Zahra Amir Ebrahimi a Cyber Crimes' Victim (1)

Exactly four years ago a movie showed in an Iranian TV channel that called ''Nargess''. A beautiful actress ''Zahra Amir Ebrahimi'' acted in this movie and absorbed every one's attention . This reputation didn't last for a long time. Few months later every one was talking about this actress and she got the subject of scandals. There was a sexy video of her that included the images of her during having sex and it spread very fast by CDs , DVDs and Internet.

Most of people even had this clip on their mobile phones . BLUETOOTH ......!!!!

What a shame!

Unfortunately it was so late when the governments started to avoid this crime . This actress left the country and nobody knows what happened to the main offender .

Using of mobile is not an offence but when some one do a criminal action , this is an offence.

Who are the offenders in this story ? The first one who spread it for the first time ? People who released it later ?

As we studied in the earlier chapter also mobile phones are a kind of computers base on the ability of processing the informations and transferring the data.

In this post I just want to talk about mobile phones . What do you think if there was a strong law related to the transferring of such a banned videos ?

The issue is the way that this clip released . Maybe each of us has a personal video in our laptops or DVDs , so what will happen if some one do the same thing to us ?

Here cyberlaw will help us , and will protect our PRIVACY against any interference attack.

will be continued ...

INTRODUCTION

The reason that I have chosen this title is the importance of cyberlaw in Iran and the way that the lack of strong cyberlaw can affect Iranian people and their new computerized life . People are suffering from cyber crimes , internet censorship , lack of an inefficient online privacy and so on in Iran these days , more than face to face crimes , and it forces us to investigate these new issues.

I am trying to find those occurrences related to the cyberlaw that happened in my country and still are happening . At least it can clear our minds to feel the necessity of a multi strong cyberlaw in our country.
