When we talk about the information and its protection, information restriction and information security turns into a big concern. Is our own information extremely safe on the internet? It is very difficult to ensure anyone that our data on internet or on our system is completely safe, the rapid growth of cyber-crimes and new techniques are introducing day by day, it became very difficult to come with an instant solution to every cyber-crime.
