The International Ethical Hacking Conference (eHaCON) 2024 is an initiative by the Cyber Security Centre of Excellence & Department of Law of the University of Engineering and Management, Kolkata, which focuses 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 of contracts, briefs, laws, regulations, and court opinions, it can also make enforcement and adjudication more effective.
Although AI is being used so broadly it still has various scope of improvement, various frauds are being committed using AI such as financial frauds, synthetic identity, and so on, which opens up a broad space in front of the researchers to play. Thus, the primary focus of this interdisciplinary conference is to gather all under the roof for overall growth and protection.
