Cyber Enabled Crime

This book discusses the evolving and complex landscape of cyber-enabled crimes in the modern world. It explores the technologies that enabled crimes, vulnerabilities which enable cyber enabled crimes, governance and policy landscape gaps and required research and innovation to tackle such crimes. Therefore, this book provides interdisciplinary insights into an important problem faced by modern society in the era of cyber, AI and digital advancement. Furthermore, it reinforces the fact that to tackle cyber-enabled crimes, we need innovative technological solutions, together with a good understanding of human and organizational behaviors, policy, legal and ethical considerations. The contributions of this book progress from societal harm ? detection ? advanced tech ? defences ? governance ? policy & capacity. This book includes six sections. The first section ("Emerging Threats and Societal Impacts") consists of contributions addressing, conceptual framing, regional context, vulnerable groups, case studies and reflections. The authors present research investigations, applications and case studies focus on cyber abuse, online harm and content moderations in the second section of this book (i.e., "Cyber Abuse, Online Harm, and Content Moderation"). The third section of this book ("Artificial Intelligence and Advanced Threat Landscapes ") focuses on the use of AI for cyber enabled crimes and ever advancing threat landscapes. The contributing chapters investigate macro threat landscapes, emerging paradigms and proposed technical countermeasures. The emerging cybersecurity technologies and defensive frameworks are discussed in the section four ("Cybersecurity Technologies and Defensive Frameworks") of this book. The section five of this book ("Governance, Privacy, and Regulatory Challenges"), presents contributions addressing governance, privacy and regulatory challenges. The contributions rage from practical cases, sector-specific regulations, advanced ethics to abstract/legal theory. The emerging cyber risks, policy landscape and building organizational capacity and capabilities are investigated in the section six of this book (i.e., "Cyber Risk, Policy, and Organizational Capacity"). This book is designed as a secondary textbook for undergraduate and postgraduate students in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Data Science, Cyber Security, and Criminology. It serves as a comprehensive reference for researchers investigating cyber-enabled crime and related digital security challenges. This book will also be of interest to cybercrime investigators, law enforcement practitioners, cyber security professionals, policymakers, regulators, and other stakeholders involved in preventing and responding to cyber-enabled crimes.
