      Question

      Consider the following statements about protected

      systems: 1. Only specified computer resources notified as such can be “protected systems”. 2. Access to a protected system without authorisation is an offence punishable with imprisonment. 3. Any private company can declare its own computer to be a protected system under the IT Act. Which of the above are correct according to the IT Act, 2000?
      A 1 and 2 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 2 and 3 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Only 1 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Only 3 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E All three Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Section 70 provides that only computer resources notified by the Central Government can be declared protected systems. Unauthorised access to such systems is punishable with imprisonment. Private companies cannot unilaterally declare their systems as protected systems. Hence, statements 1 and 2 are correct, making option A correct.
