“…Education is frequently the first step in prevention. According to Marcum et al (2019) [13], increasing public knowledge of cyber-stalking is necessary. Agencies at the municipal and federal levels may become more focused on preventative measures as a result of raising public knowledge of the problem, which could lead to multi-agency awareness campaigns [14].…”

“…Agencies at the municipal and federal levels may become more focused on preventative measures as a result of raising public knowledge of the problem, which could lead to multi-agency awareness campaigns [14]. Experts agree that the best approach to avoid becoming a victim of cyberstalking is to educate yourself about the crimes and to seek professional help from law enforcement and other organisations if you feel a cybercrime has occurred [13].…”

The ubiquity of the internet and mobile phones has drastically shifted the physical world into a virtual realm, encompassing individuals of all age groups, from schoolchildren to seniors. People now utilize social media and various internet-based platforms to connect and invest their time. However, within this virtual environment, the ability to conceal or impersonate one’s identity presents an opportunity for criminal activity to go unnoticed. Despite India’s progression towards becoming a digital nation, there exists a shortage of regulations and technological resources to address the challenges stemming from this digital paradigm shift. Cybercrime refers to any illicit behavior involving the use of a computer as a tool, target, or weapon. One subset of cybercrime is cyberstalking, which encompasses actions where a perpetrator employs a computer or associated technologies to induce fear in their victim. This chapter aims to delve into the definition, typology, detection, prevention, and the imperative need for cybercrime education. Its primary objective is to investigate the surge in internet stalking cases in India, exploring the definition, categories, and underlying causes of cyberstalking. Additionally, this article scrutinizes the Indian legal framework and judicial precedents related to these issues.

“…Third order effects also encompass another person inadvertently becoming a target after helping a victim. Enduring effects on victims have been increasingly documented ( L. J. Cox, 2006 ; L. Cox & Speziale, 2009 ; Johansen & Tjørnhøj-Thomsen, 2016 ), capturing the impact of protracted and evolving campaigns in which stalkers’ unpredictable activities elicit confusion and fear of ongoing threat.…”

Research examining the prevalence and impacts of stalking on mental health professionals (MHPs) has grown over the last two decades. Yet only one previous review has been undertaken examining impacts on staff and focusing on clients as stalkers, with prevalence estimated between 10% and 13%. This systematic review sought to assess prevalence of stalking, and associated impacts and methods of coping reported by MHPs, irrespective of perpetrator type. The search included all healthcare professional groups working in a mental health setting, reported in English or with available translation. Secondary searches were conducted through references cited in primary papers. Of the 7,060 papers identified in five databases, 11 peer-reviewed papers met rigorous inclusion criteria and were quality appraised. Reviewed studies reported prevalence rates between 10.2% and 50%, with higher quality papers reporting a narrower band, 13.9% and 14.3%. However, substantial variability in stalking definitions, and quality of methodology precluded precise prevalence estimation. Participants within the included studies disclosed significant adverse impacts on confidence and competence at work as a consequence of their experiences. Staff invoked substantial workplace and lifestyle changes to mitigate impacts of stalking. However, studies revealed staff disclosed stalking by perpetrators other than clients, notably colleagues and intimate partners, as often or more frequently than by clients. Limitations of the included research and future directions are discussed.
