- Our world online and networked is immersed under a wave of populism; populism spreads on the wings of internet. The recent technological advancements like the use of social media platforms and different applications made the information exchange faster and more efficient making the information access easier. To keep our information, gadgets such as cell phones, laptops, desktops, and tablets and also the internet safe, knowledge of cybersecurity is vital everywhere. In many colleges and Universities who are in to interconnected complex systems, data privacy is a huge challenge among their users. In most of the situations, due to lack of knowledge and awareness, users may engage in data breaches knowingly or unknowingly and the complete interconnected systems among the users may have a consequence of a cybercrime. This article seeks to unpack the rise of cyber-crimes and its relationship to cyber security among student groups during the pandemic where much of their interaction is online. The research aims to inquire in to the level of knowledge and awareness on cybersecurity among students during their online learning interaction using a well-structured questionnaire. The questionnaire will be focused on five parts: Awareness and Knowledge, Monitoring and Privilege, Security and Prevention, Protection from malware s and usage of removable Devices. The study is conducted using quantitative research methodology to quantitatively evaluate the knowledge of cybersecurity and inculcate an awareness against Cybercrime protection among the students. Finally, based on the analysis of collected data we present recommendations which will not forego the safety concerns for e mails, viruses, phishing, pop-up windows and forged ads which is a common problem. Some technological solutions and paths for the regulation of the cybercrimes are suggested to the respondents at the end. 2022 IEEE.
