This book provides a comprehensive overview of the current and emerging challenges of cyber criminology, victimization and profiling. It is a compilation of the outcomes of the collaboration between researchers and practitioners in the cyber criminology field, IT law and security field.
As Governments, corporations, security firms, and individuals look to tomorrow’s cyber security challenges, this book provides a reference point for experts and forward-thinking analysts at a time when the debate over how we plan for the cyber-security of the future has become a major concern.Many criminological perspectives define crime in terms of social, cultural and material characteristics, and view crimes as taking place at a specific geographic location. This definition has allowed crime to be characterised, and crime prevention, mapping and measurement methods to be tailored to specific target audiences. However, this characterisation cannot be carried over to cybercrime, because the environment in which such crime is committed cannot be pinpointed to a geographical location, or distinctive social or cultural groups.
Due to the rapid changes in technology, cyber criminals’ behaviour has become dynamic, making it necessary to reclassify the typology being currently used. Essentially, cyber criminals’ behaviour is evolving over time as they learn from their actions and others’ experiences, and enhance their skills. The offender signature, which is a repetitive ritualistic behaviour that offenders often display at the crime scene, provides law enforcement agencies an appropriate profiling tool and offers investigators the opportunity to understand the motivations that perpetrate such crimes. This has helped researchers classify the type of perpetrator being sought.
This book offers readers insights into the psychology of cyber criminals, and understanding and analysing their motives and the methodologies they adopt. With an understanding of these motives, researchers, governments and practitioners can take effective measures to tackle cybercrime and reduce victimization.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本書提供了對當前及新興的網路犯罪學、受害者化及剖析挑戰的全面概述。它是網路犯罪學領域、資訊科技法律及安全領域的研究者與實務者合作成果的彙編。
隨著政府、企業、安全公司和個人面對未來的網路安全挑戰,本書為專家和前瞻性分析師提供了一個參考點,特別是在如何規劃未來網路安全的辯論成為主要關注事項的時刻。
許多犯罪學觀點將犯罪定義為社會、文化和物質特徵,並認為犯罪發生在特定的地理位置。這一定義使得犯罪得以被特徵化,並使得犯罪預防、地圖繪製和測量方法能夠針對特定的目標受眾。然而,這種特徵化無法轉移到網路犯罪上,因為此類犯罪發生的環境無法精確定位到某個地理位置或特定的社會或文化群體。
由於技術的快速變化,網路犯罪者的行為變得動態,這使得重新分類目前使用的類型變得必要。基本上,網路犯罪者的行為隨著時間的推移而演變,因為他們從自己的行為和他人的經驗中學習,並提升自己的技能。犯罪者簽名,即犯罪者在犯罪現場經常表現出的重複儀式性行為,為執法機構提供了一個合適的剖析工具,並為調查人員提供了理解促成此類犯罪動機的機會。這有助於研究者分類所尋找的犯罪者類型。
這本書為讀者提供了對網路犯罪者心理的見解,以及理解和分析他們的動機和所採用的方法論。透過對這些動機的理解,研究者、政府和實務者可以採取有效措施來應對網路犯罪並減少受害者化。
