Discuss the provisions of Sections 14 and 15 of Information Technology Act, 2000, on secure electronic records.

The Central Government under the Information Technology Act, 2000 may prescribe the security procedure for electronic records, having regard to the commercial circumstances prevailing at the time when the procedure is used (Section 16). When the security procedure has been applied to an electronic record at a specific point of time, then such record is deemed to be a secure electronic record, from such point of time to the time of verification. (Section 14) An electronic signature shall be deemed to be a secure electronic signature if- the signature creation data, at the time of affixing signature, was under the exclusive control of signatory and no other person; and the signature creation data was stored and affixed in such exclusive manner as may be prescribed. (Section 15).
