Abstract

The advent of the internet has made dramatic changes in human lives. In addition, the internet also opens avenues for various criminal activities. Women are more vulnerable to cyber threats than men on social sites. Cybercrime against women is at an alarming state in Bangladesh. There is a need to inform about the pervasiveness and different forms of cybercrimes and increase awareness of safety precautions. This study seeks to explore the crimes committed against women and girls on social sites in Bangladesh. In addition, the research will suggest some remedial measures to control and combat cybercrime against women and girls.
