| computer crime law 4th edition: Law for Computer Scientists and Other Folk Mireille Hildebrandt, 2020-04-22 This is the first textbook introducing law to computer scientists. The book covers privacy and data protection law, cybercrime, intellectual property, private law liability and legal personhood and legal agency, next to introductions to private law, public law, criminal law and international and supranational law. It provides an overview of the practical implications of law, their theoretical underpinnings and how they affect the study and construction of computational architectures. In a constitutional democracy everyone is under the Rule of Law, including those who develop code and systems, and those who put applications on the market. It is pivotal that computer scientists and developers get to know what law and the Rule of Law require. Before talking about ethics, we need to make sure that the checks and balances of law and the Rule of Law are in place and complied with. Though it is focused on European law, it also refers to US law and aims to provide insights into what makes law, law, rather than brute force or morality, demonstrating the operations of law in a way that has global relevance. This book is geared to those who have no wish to become lawyers but are nevertheless forced to consider the salience of legal rights and obligations with regard to the construction, maintenance and protection of computational artefacts. This is an open access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 International licence. It is offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected open access locations. |

| computer crime law 4th edition: Cybercrime and Digital Deviance Roderick S. Graham, 'Shawn K. Smith, 2024-04-30 Cybercrime and Digital Deviance, Second Edition, combines insights from sociology, criminology, psychology, and cybersecurity to explore cybercrimes such as hacking, identity theft, and romance scams, along with forms of digital deviance such as pornography addiction, trolling, and “canceling” people for perceived violations of norms. Other issues are explored including cybercrime investigations, nation-state cybercrime, the use of algorithms in policing, cybervictimization, and expanded discussion of the theories used to explain cybercrime. Graham and Smith conceptualize the online space as a distinct environment for social interaction, framing their work with assumptions informed by their respective work in urban sociology and spatial criminology, and offering an engaging entry point for understanding what may appear to be a technologically complex course of study. The authors apply a modified version of a typology developed by David Wall: cybertrespass, cyberfraud, cyberviolence, and cyberpornography. This typology is simple enough for students just beginning their inquiry into cybercrime, while its use of legal categories of trespassing, fraud, violent crimes against persons, and moral transgressions provides a solid foundation for deeper study. In this edition each chapter includes a new “Current Events and Critical Thinking” section, using concepts from the chapter to explore a specific event or topic like the effect of disinformation on social cohesion and politics. Taken together, Graham and Smith’s application of a digital environment and Wall’s cybercrime typology makes this an ideal upper-level text for students in sociology and criminal justice. It is also an ideal introductory text for students within the emerging disciplines of cybercrime and cybersecurity. |

| computer crime law 4th edition: Criminal Justice in the 21st Century (4th Edition) Laura J. Moriarty, 2025-03-26 The fourth edition of Criminal Justice Technology in the 21st Century comes just about five years after the COVID-19 pandemic when technology took a more prominent role in our everyday lives and, more importantly, in the criminal justice system. Ideas that once were mere thoughts from academics pondering the future have become everyday realities. While most areas of life came to a standstill as the pandemic ensued, the criminal justice system could not stop. Crime adapts more seamlessly than other aspects of society, and as such, the criminal justice system needed to adapt as well. The contributing authors were asked to consider the pandemic and its impact on evolving technology and advancements to address crime. Likewise, other societal concerns focusing on law enforcement and its questionable use of force, at times, have escalated the need for technology to ensure that “over-policing” in minority neighborhoods and accountability is established (or not) to deescalate violence, whether police brutality or protester police violence. The impact of technology remains to be seen, but there is real hope that such technology can begin to shed light on what is happening in these volatile situations. Either the current contributors have updated their chapters from the Third Edition, or there are new contributors focusing on the abovementioned issues. This fourth edition, with more than 20 contributors, highlights the most current thinking about criminal justice technology. The book is longer than the previous editions but has fewer chapters. This is the result of paring down what is included in this new edition. The hope is that these chapters will be the most relevant and useful to both the expert and the neophyte. Criminal justice technology will continue to advance, and we must keep abreast of new trends. |
| computer crime law 4th edition: The Handbook of International Humanitarian Law Dieter Fleck, 2013-08-29 This fully updated third edition of The Handbook of International Humanitarian Law sets out an international manual of humanitarian law accompanied by case analysis and extensive explanatory commentary by a team of distinguished and internationally renowned experts. The new edition takes account of recent developments in the law, including the 2010 amendments to the ICC Statute, the progressive evolution of customary law, and new jurisprudence from national and international courts and tribunals. It sheds light on controversial topics like direct participation in hostilities; air and missile warfare; belligerent occupation; operational detention; and the protection of the environment in armed conflict. The book also addresses the growing need to consider the interface between international humanitarian law and human rights, as well as other branches of international law, both during armed conflicts and in post-conflict situations. The commentary both deepens reflection on such innovations, and critically reconsiders views expressed in earlier editions to provide a contemporary analysis of this changing field. Renowned international lawyers offer a broad spectrum of legal opinions, restating the law in this area, which is applicable worldwide. Particular attention is paid to problems of application of the law in recent military campaigns, which are assessed and interpreted in a practice-oriented manner. Based on best-practice rules of global importance, this book gives invaluable guidance to practitioners and scholars of this important body of law. |

| computer crime law 4th edition: Cybercrime Charles Doyle, 2011-04 The federal computer fraud and abuse statute, 18 U.S.C. 1030, outlaws conduct that victimizes computer systems. It is a cyber security law which protects federal computers, bank computers, and computers connected to the Internet. It shields them from trespassing, threats, damage, espionage, and from being corruptly used as instruments of fraud. It is not a comprehensive provision, but instead it fills cracks and gaps in the protection afforded by other federal criminal laws. This report provides a brief sketch of Section 1030 and some of its federal statutory companions, including the amendments found in the Identity Theft Enforcement and Restitution Act, P.L. 110-326.

| computer crime law 4th edition: Cybercrime Susan W. Brenner, 2010-02-26 This fascinating and timely book traces the emergence and evolution of cybercrime as an increasingly intransigent threat to society. Cybercrime: Criminal Threats from Cyberspace is intended to explain two things: what cybercrime is and why the average citizen should care about it. To accomplish that task, the book offers an overview of cybercrime and an in-depth discussion of the legal and policy issues surrounding it. Enhancing her narrative with real-life stories, author Susan W. Brenner traces the rise of cybercrime from mainframe computer hacking in the 1950s to the organized, professional, and often transnational cybercrime that has become the norm in the 21st century. She explains the many different types of computer-facilitated crime, including identity theft, stalking, extortion, and the use of viruses and worms to damage computers, and outlines and analyzes the challenges cybercrime poses for law enforcement officers at the national and international levels. Finally, she considers the inherent tension between improving law enforcement's ability to pursue cybercriminals and protecting the privacy of U.S. citizens. |

This new edition aims to integrate security education and awareness with discussions of morality and ethics. The reader will gain an understanding of how the security of information in general and of computer networks in particular, on which our national critical infrastructure and, indeed, our lives depend, is based squarely on the individuals who build the hardware and design and develop the software that run the networks that store our vital information. Addressing security issues with ever-growing social networks are two new chapters: Security of Mobile Systems and Security in the Cloud Infrastructure.

| computer crime law 4th edition: Computer Law Chris Reed, 1990 Early treatment of computer law was no more than the application of existing principles to novel sets of facts. Today, it has been recognized generally that computing technology does indeed give rise to unique legal problems which are not resolvable by applying existing legal principles. This is particularly apparent where transactions are carried out through the exchange of digital information rather than human interaction. The developing law which seeks to resolve these problems is at the heart of the latest edition of this book, now established as a standard text on computer law for students, practitioners, and business in general for whom information technology is an integral part of their daily activities.--BOOK JACKET. |
| computer crime law 4th edition: Cybercrime and Digital Forensics Thomas J. Holt, Adam M. Bossler, Kathryn C. Seigfried-Spellar, 2015-02-11 The emergence of the World Wide Web, smartphones, and Computer-Mediated Communications (CMCs) profoundly affect the way in which people interact online and offline. Individuals who engage in socially unacceptable or outright criminal acts increasingly utilize technology to connect with one another in ways that are not otherwise possible in the real world due to shame, social stigma, or risk of detection. As a consequence, there are now myriad opportunities for wrongdoing and abuse through technology. This book offers a comprehensive and integrative introduction to cybercrime. It is the first to connect the disparate literature on the various types of cybercrime, the investigation and detection of cybercrime and the role of digital information, and the wider role of technology as a facilitator for social relationships between deviants and criminals. It includes coverage of: key theoretical and methodological perspectives, computer hacking and digital piracy, economic crime and online fraud, pornography and online sex crime, cyber-bulling and cyber-stalking, cyber-terrorism and extremism, digital forensic investigation and its legal context, cybercrime policy. This book includes lively and engaging features, such as discussion questions, boxed examples of unique events and key figures in offending, quotes from interviews with active offenders and a full glossary of terms. It is supplemented by a companion website that includes further students exercises and instructor resources. This text is essential reading for courses on cybercrime, cyber-deviancy, digital forensics, cybercrime investigation and the sociology of technology. |
| computer crime law 4th edition: Ethical and Social Issues in the Information Age Joseph M. Kizza, 2013-03-09 Computer technology, barely fifty years old, has enormously transformed human society. The computer revolution, as many have termed it, is quietly but surely affecting every human being on earth in a multitude of ways. Both large and small institutions and indi viduals from all walks of life have come to rely on information, more so today than ever before. Although experiences on the whole have been positive thus far, troubling ethical and social issues are coming to our attention. The security of information we all have come to rely on is no longer guaranteed; individual norms of conduct and ethical behavior are changing. Computer technological development is outpacing the ability of our legal sys tems. Traditional ethical issues like security, privacy, integrity, responsibility, anonymity, property rights, and related social concerns are also greatly affected by our highly tech nological environment. Many ethical questions that used to be answered easily have become more compli cated. Like symptoms of a disease, if these concerns are not diagnosed and treated in a timely fashion, they may become untreatable and eventually wreak havoc on human lives. The book analyzes the effects of computer technology on traditional ethical and so cial issues. In particular, I explore the consequences of relatively new computer tech nologies such as virtual reality, artificial intelligence, and the Internet. • Chapter 1 defines and examines personal and public morality, the law (both conven tional and natural law), and the intertwining of morality and the law. |
| computer crime law 4th edition: Cyber Crime and Digital Disorder Syed Umarhathab, 2011 |
| computer crime law 4th edition: Cyber Security in Tanzania Asherry Magalla, 2017-04-15 The reason as to why I decided to write this book is the fact that many of us lives with a belief that we have only four common domains in this world, which are land, sea, air and outer space. But currently due to the development of science and technology a fifth common domain has been created, and that is cyberspace. This new common domain creates a new environment for the commission of crimes known as cyber crimes. And because of its nature, it became difficult to deal with these natures of crimes. The widespread digital accessibility creates new opportunities for the unprincipled because the manners in which offenders commit crimes changed from traditional to digital means. A lot of currencies are lost by both businesses and consumers to computer-criminals. Fair enough, computers and networks can be used to harass victims or set them up for violent attacks such as to coordinate and carry out terrorist activities that threaten us all. Coming back to our country Tanzania, regrettably in many cases law enforcement institutions have insulated behind these criminals, deficient in the technology and the trained recruits to address this fresh and rising risk. To make things worse, old laws did not fairly prevent the crimes from being committed. Furthermore, new laws had not quite caught up to the reality of what was happening, and there were few court precedents to look to for guidance. It is from this book whereby the position of cyber security, prevention and detection in Tanzania against cyber crimes, is determined. Actually, by looking at the Cyber Crime Act No.14 of 2015 on how the concepts above have been provided and implemented. Magalla Jr.Note de l'éditeur (FRENCH):Cet essai juridique en anglais traite du droit des nouvelles technologies de l'information et de la communication (NTIC) en Tanzanie, en particulier de la cybercriminalité, de sa définition, de sa prévention et de sa répression en fonction des formes multiples qu'elle prend dans le cyber espace. Après avoir dépeint le cadre général et international du droit des NTIC, l'auteur va décrire la situation tanzanienne. L'approche se veut à la fois doctrinale et pratique. Les principales sources du droit des NTIC sont décrites et l'ouvrage se termine sur des cas pratiques rencontrés dans des tribunaux tanzaniens. |
| computer crime law 4th edition: Handbook of Internet Crime Yvonne Jewkes, Majid Yar, 2013-03-07 An essential reference for scholars and others whose work brings them into contact with managing, policing and regulating online behaviour, the Handbook of Internet Crime emerges at a time of rapid social and technological change. Amidst much debate about the dangers presented by the Internet and intensive negotiation over its legitimate uses and regulation, this is the most comprehensive and ambitious book on cybercrime to date. The Handbook of Internet Crime gathers together the leading scholars in the field to explore issues and debates surrounding internet-related crime, deviance, policing, law and regulation in the 21st century. The Handbook reflects the range and depth of cybercrime research and scholarship, combining contributions from many of those who have established and developed cyber research over the past 25 years and who continue to shape it in its current phase, with more recent entrants to the field who are building on this tradition and breaking new ground. Contributions reflect both the global nature of cybercrime problems, and the international span of scholarship addressing its challenges. |
| computer crime law 4th edition: Criminal Investigation, Fourth Edition Michael J. Palmiotto, 2012-06-25 Criminal investigators need broad knowledge of such topics as criminal law, criminal procedure, and investigative techniques. The best resource for these professionals will distill the needed information into one practical volume. Written in an accessible style, the fourth edition of Criminal Investigation maintains the same reader friendly approach that made its predecessors so popular with students, professionals, and practitioners. Beginning with an overview of the history of criminal investigation, the book explores current investigative practices and the legal issues that constrain or guide them. It discusses the wide range of sources of information available, including the internet, individuals, state and local sources, and federal agencies and commissions. Next, the book discusses other investigative techniques, including interviewing and interrogation, informants, surveillance, and undercover operations. A chapter on report writing provides explicit instructions on how to capture the most critical information needed in an investigation. Additional chapters cover the crime scene investigation and the crime laboratory. The remainder of the book delves into the specific investigative protocols for individual crimes, including sex offenses, homicide, mass and serial murder, assault and robbery, property crimes, cybercrime, and narcotics. Concluding chapters focus on the police/prosecutor relationship and investigative trends. Each chapter includes a summary, a list of key terms, and review questions so that readers can test their assimilation of the material. Clear and concise, this book is an essential resource for every criminal investigator’s toolbox. |
| computer crime law 4th edition: Legal Principles for Combatting Cyberlaundering Daniel Adeoyé Leslie, 2014-07-18 This volume deals with the very novel issue of cyber laundering. The book investigates the problem of cyber laundering legally and sets out why it is of a grave legal concern locally and internationally. The book looks at the current state of laws and how they do not fully come to grips with the problem. As a growing practice in these modern times, and manifesting through technological innovations, cyber laundering is the birth child of money laundering and cybercrime. It concerns how the internet is used for 'washing' illicit proceeds of crime. In addition to exploring the meaning and ambits of the problem with concrete real-life examples, more importantly, a substantial part of the work innovates ways in which the dilemma can be curbed legally. This volume delves into a very grey area of law, daring a yet unthreaded territory and scouring undiscovered paths where money laundering, cybercrime, information technology and international law converge. In addition to unearthing such complexity, the hallmark of this book is in the innovative solutions and dynamic remedies it postulates. |
| computer crime law 4th edition: Cybersecurity in Poland Katarzyna Chałubińska-Jentkiewicz, Filip Radoniewicz, Tadeusz Zieliński, 2021-10-27 This open access book explores the legal aspects of cybersecurity in Poland. The authors are not limited to the framework created by the NCSA (National Cybersecurity System Act – this act was the first attempt to create a legal regulation of cybersecurity and, in addition, has implemented the provisions of the NIS Directive) but may discuss a number of other issues. The book presents international and EU regulations in the field of cybersecurity and issues pertinent to combating cybercrime and cyberterrorism. Moreover, regulations concerning cybercrime in a few select European countries are presented in addition to the problem of collision of state actions in ensuring cybersecurity and human rights. The advantages of the book include a comprehensive and synthetic approach to the issues related to the cybersecurity system of the Republic of Poland, a research perspective that takes as the basic level of analysis issues related to the security of the state and citizens, and the analysis of additional issues related to cybersecurity, such as cybercrime, cyberterrorism, and the problem of collision between states ensuring security cybernetics and human rights. The book targets a wide range of readers, especially scientists and researchers, members of legislative bodies, practitioners (especially judges, prosecutors, lawyers, law enforcement officials), experts in the field of IT security, and officials of public authorities. Most authors are scholars and researchers at the War Studies University in Warsaw. Some of them work at the Academic Centre for Cybersecurity Policy – a thinktank created by the Ministry of National Defence of the Republic of Poland. |
