Description - Investigating Digital Crime by Robin P. Bryant
Investigating Digital Crimeis an accessible introduction to
the relationship between the parallel growth of new digital
technologies and their criminal exploitation. The book examines the
reaction of the criminal justice system, both in terms of the
general legislative context but also from the perspective of law
enforcement, and provides a clear account of the different forms of
digital crime. In order to enhance student understanding, this book
includes a detailed description and analysis of digital crimes such
as smart card crime, cyber crimes and telecommunication crimes in
relation to a number of theoretical perspectives. The book clearly
identifies the relationship between developments in digital
technologies and changes in criminal behaviour.
Numerous case studies are provided throughout, with examples
from the UK, other European nations and the US illustrating both
the theoretical perspectives offered and the associated
investigative context. Opening with an introduction to the
challenges of new technology crime and background to the phenomena,
the book then moves on to discuss the legislative context, for
example, the interception of email and its use as evidence in
court. The latter half of the book examines a range of new
technology crimes, from the illegal modification of games consoles
and mobile phones, through to new forms of identity theft, card
crime and the use of new technology by sex offenders.
Covers a broad range of digital crime from IPR crime through to
identity theft, telecommunications and card crime
Written by leading researchers, teachers and practitioners in
the field

technology crime and clearly describes and analyses the
investigative and legislative context
