CYBERCRIME - DAVID S WALL KARTONIERT (TB)

How has the digital revolution transformed criminal opportunities and behaviour? What is
different about cybercrime compared with traditional criminal activity? What impact might
cybercrime have on public security? In this updated edition of his authoritative and
field-defining text  cybercrime expert David Wall carefully examines these and other important
issues. Incorporating analysis of the latest technological advances and their criminological
implications  he disentangles what is really known about cybercrime today. An ecosystem of
specialists has emerged to facilitate cybercrime  reducing individual offenders' level of risk
and increasing the scale of crimes involved. This is a world where digital and networked
technologies have effectively democratized crime by enabling almost anybody to carry out crimes
that were previously the preserve of either traditional organized crime groups or a privileged
coterie of powerful people. Against this background  the author scrutinizes the regulatory
challenges that cybercrime poses for the criminal (and civil) justice processes  at both the
national and the international levels. This book offers the most intellectually robust account
of cybercrime currently available. It is suitable for use on courses across the social sciences
and in computer science  and will appeal to advanced undergraduate and graduate students.
