Abstract
Internet crimes against minors is a complex social emerging issue and a matter of concern that needs more attention from the government law enforcement agencies, legislators, parents, educators, intermediaries and over-the-top (OTT) platforms due to the massive increase in the usage of internet and mobile communication technologies. It is seen that relative ease in accessing media has led to an increase in online crimes against teenagers/adolescents having varied dimensions and impact on the victims. The study explores different forms of online crimes faced by teenagers through various online platforms, the potential offenders and the types of technologies deployed by them to commit crimes against minors. The article focuses on analysing existing laws and policies in India to combat cybercrimes against minors. Strategies for the prevention and protection of children against child abuse and exploitation have also been discussed.
