Feminism has always fought for asserting women’s rights and justified their struggle to be considered equal to their male counterparts. One of the objectives of feminism has been to put an end to the atrocities and challenges faced by women due to rigid norms formed by the patriarchal system. However, with the passage of time, women stepped out from the four walls of their homes and contributed to the household income of the family. Digitalization brought the world closer, and it facilitated socialization with people all over the world. Studies show that women are victims of various types of violence, and social media contributes to an increasing rate of violence against women as they fall prey to trolling, body shaming, and humiliation.
This book is an exploration of portraying how women fall prey to social media. It provides new and innovative techniques to facilitate the safety of women. This book argues the benefits of technological modes of cyber security during this ongoing crisis, and advocates for practical approaches to understand the gap between social media and security for women.
