 Digital Center calls for legislation of ‘information technology’ law to protect electronic payment

Shafaq News / The Iraqi Digital Media Center (DMC) saw, on Tuesday, that the development in the country in the field of using electronic payment in financial transactions is proceeding at a rapid pace and in a steady hierarchy.

The center indicated, in a statement reported to Shafaq News, that this development in the technical field, which is happening for the first time in Iraq, requires the legislative institution represented by the Iraqi Council of Representatives, to pay attention to digital legislation to protect citizens from any violation or violation of financial data and the privacy of users.

For this reason, the Center emphasizes, according to the statement, to speed up the adoption of the law on combating information technology crimes; for the necessary need for it at this time in cooperation with specialized organizations in this field, taking into account the importance of not compromising freedom of expression of opinion as one of the constitutional guarantees.

The Digital Media Center shows that Iraq is long late in approving digital laws related to protecting users from crimes committed in the virtual world, stressing the need for the texts of the law to include a new and modern vision to address information technology crimes.
