Risk Roundup Webcast: Complex Challenges Of Cyber Crime Investigation

Combatting Cyber Crimes

Digital data has become a criminal commodity.

As it drives the rapidly growing criminal activities, phishing, pharming,
malware distribution, hacking of corporate databases, espionage, extortion, and
attacks on critical infrastructure are on the rise.

Since, the criminal

threat from cyberspace has become
multi-dimensional, and targets individuals and entities across nations: its
government, industries, organizations, and academia (NGIOA) at a rapidly
growing rate, combatting cyber-crimes has become one of the
top priorities for every nation.

Cyber-crime has, in fact, become an industry and is a mature industry. The tools used by cyber-criminals are supported by malicious code writers, specialist web hosts, and individuals working for a sophisticated industry. They are even able to lease compromised computer networks to carry out automated attacks. Individually and collectively they are posing a direct threat to the security of not only individuals and entities across NGIOA but the entire cyberspace, aquaspace, geospace and space (CAGS).  

Cybercrime is globalized. The democratization of information has given

rise to the globalization of crime. The rapid advances
in the functionalities of information communication technologies (ICTs),
artificial intelligence, and more are further adding to the complexities.

Complex Challenges of Cyber Crime Investigation

Cyber-crimes are

generally technically complex and legally intricate, and the inherent differences
between each nation’s technical and legal systems bring complex challenges for investigating
cyber-crimes. 

Furthermore, cyber-crimes do not respond to a single jurisdiction

approach to policing. Since the ease with which criminals can move from one
type of illegal activity to another suggests that territorialism in all its
forms is becoming a significant obstacle to successfully battle the misuse of
technology.

Moreover, the traditional distinction between threats to internal and

external security, or civilian and military security is blurring rapidly. Personal
information and data have become a commodity. It moves far too quickly for conventional law
enforcement methods to keep pace. Individually and collectively, this
necessitates an understanding of complex challenges facing cyber- crime
investigators. It is essential to understand and evaluate:

  • Who investigates cyber-attacks across nations?
  • Do nations have well-trained cybercrime
investigators?
  • What skill sets cyber-investigators should have?
  • What are the mindset and technical competencies that
  • are necessary for investigating cyber-crimes?
  • How do investigators go after cyber-crimes?
  • Are investigators allowed to monitor and intercept
  • communications?
  • How does real-time digital monitoring happen?
  • What are the
  • jurisdictional challenges investigators face when addressing cyber-crimes?
  • How is the technology used for cyber investigation?
  • Do nations have necessary technology resources?
  • What are some of the significant issues involved in
  • stopping cyber criminals?

    The time is now to discuss and debate the Complex Challenges of Cyber-Crime

    Investigation.
