Abstract
This paper examined the use and protection of
rights in cyberspace. The exercise of rights in cyberspace is as a result of
the activities of cyberization spearheaded by the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
Accordingly, the adoption of various aspects of reality, into digitalized
formats, has not only created another dimension for transacting, executing
rights, it has created a fresh epicenter for social media menace and abusive
practices. Following this, the State’s duty to protect, now possesses a cyber
aspect that is jurisprudentially embodied in cyber laws and cyber security
regulations. Therefore, this work adopts the doctrinal research methodology for
assessing safety and security concerns as it relates to the exercise of human
rights in cyberspace. Bearing the above in mind, focus is placed on the
protection of ownership and possession of exclusive rights, thereby ensuring
the legal basis of activities so performed on cyber platforms and the stoppage
of criminality. States are then encouraged to take practical steps towards
ensuring the guarantee of human rights protection in cyberspace. The research
more so emphasized that it is fundamental to ensure that cybersecurity laws and
regulations adopted by governments are practicable enough to deal with the
challenges and complexities of cybercrime.
