Technology has become increasingly important to both the function
and our understanding of the justice process. Many forms of
criminal behaviour are highly dependent upon technology, and crime
control has become a predominantly technologically driven process -
one where 'traditional' technological aids such as fingerprinting
or blood sample analysis are supplemented by a dizzying array of
tools and techniques including surveillance devices and DNA
profiling. This book offers the first comprehensive and holistic
overview of global research on technology, crime and justice. It is
divided into five parts, each corresponding with the key stages of
the offending and justice process: Part I addresses the current
conceptual understanding of technology within academia and the
criminal justice system; Part II gives a comprehensive overview of
the current relations between technology and criminal behaviour;
Part III explores the current technologies within crime control and
the ways in which technology underpins contemporary formal and
informal social control; Part IV sets out some of the fundamental
impacts technology is now having upon the judicial process; Part V
reveals the emerging technologies for crime, control and justice
and considers the extent to which new technology can be effectively
regulated. This landmark collection will be essential reading for
academics, students and theorists within criminology, sociology,
law, engineering and technology, and computer science, as well as
practitioners and professionals working within and around the
criminal justice system.
Non-Commercial digital piracy has seen an unprecedented rise in the
wake of the digital revolution; with wide-scale downloading and
sharing of copyrighted media online, often committed by otherwise
law-abiding citizens. Bringing together perspectives from
criminology, psychology, business, and adopting a morally neutral
stance, this book offers a holistic overview of this growing
phenomenon. It considers its cultural, commercial, and legal
aspects, and brings together international research on a range of
topics, such as copyright infringement, intellectual property,
music publishing, movie piracy, and changes in consumer behaviour.
This book offers a new perspective to the growing literature on
cybercrime and digital security. This multi-disciplinary book is
the first to bring together international research on digital
piracy and will be key reading for researchers in the fields of
criminology, psychology, law and business.
Research on cybercrime has been largely bifurcated, with social
science and computer science researchers working with different
research agendas. These fields have produced parallel scholarship
to understand cybercrime offending and victimization, as well as
techniques to harden systems from compromise and understand the
tools used by cybercriminals. The literature developed from these
two fields is diverse and informative, but until now there has been
minimal interdisciplinary scholarship combining their insights in
order to create a more informed and robust body of knowledge. This
book offers an interdisciplinary approach to research on cybercrime
and lays out frameworks for collaboration between the fields.
Bringing together international experts, this book explores a range
of issues from malicious software and hacking to victimization and
fraud. This work also provides direction for policy changes to both
cybersecurity and criminal justice practice based on the enhanced
understanding of cybercrime that can be derived from integrated
research from both the technical and social sciences. The authors
demonstrate the breadth of contemporary scholarship as well as
identifying key questions that could be addressed in the future or
unique methods that could benefit the wider research community.
This edited collection will be key reading for academics,
researchers, and practitioners in both computer security and law
enforcement. This book is also a comprehensive resource for
postgraduate and advanced undergraduate students undertaking
courses in social and technical studies.
We now live in a pre-crime society, in which information technology
strategies and techniques such as predictive policing, actuarial
justice and surveillance penology are used to achieve
hyper-securitization. However, such securitization comes at a cost
- the criminalization of everyday life is guaranteed, justice
functions as an algorithmic industry and punishment is administered
through dataveillance regimes. This pioneering book explores
relevant theories, developing technologies and institutional
practices and explains how the pre-crime society operates in the
'ultramodern' age of digital reality construction. Reviewing
pre-crime's cultural and political effects, the authors propose new
directions in crime control policy.

The emergence of the World Wide Web, smartphones, and computers has
transformed the world and enabled individuals to engage in crimes
in a multitude of new ways. Criminological scholarship on these
issues has increased dramatically over the last decade, as have
studies on ways to prevent and police these offenses. This book is
one of the first texts to provide a comprehensive review of
research regarding cybercrime, policing and enforcing these
offenses, and the prevention of various offenses as global change
and technology adoption increases the risk of victimization around
the world. Drawing on a wide range of literature, Holt and Bossler
offer an extensive synthesis of numerous contemporary topics such
as theories used to account for cybercrime, policing in domestic
and transnational contexts, cybercrime victimization and issues in
cybercrime prevention. The findings provide a roadmap for future
research in cybercrime, policing, and technology, and discuss key
controversies in the existing research literature in a way that is
otherwise absent from textbooks and general cybercrime readers.
This book is an invaluable resource for academics, practitioners,
and students interested in understanding the state of the art in
social science research. It will be of particular interest to
scholars and students interested in cybercrime, cyber-deviance,
victimization, policing, criminological theory, and technology in
general.
Deception in the Digital Age: Exploiting and Defending Human
Targets Through Computer-Mediated Communication guides readers
through the fascinating history and principles of deception-and how
these techniques and stratagems are now being effectively used by
cyber attackers. Users will find an in-depth guide that provides
valuable insights into the cognitive, sensory and narrative bases
of misdirection, used to shape the targeted audience's perceptions
and beliefs. The text provides a detailed analysis of the
psychological, sensory, sociological, and technical precepts that
reveal predictors of attacks-and conversely postmortem insight
about attackers-presenting a unique resource that empowers readers
to observe, understand and protect against cyber deception tactics.
Written by information security experts with real-world
investigative experience, the text is the most instructional book
available on the subject, providing practical guidance to readers
with rich literature references, diagrams and examples that enhance
the learning process.

This book articulates how crime prevention research and practice
can be reimagined for an increasingly digital world. This
ground-breaking work explores how criminology can apply
longstanding, traditional crime prevention techniques to the
digital realm. It provides an overview of the key principles,
concepts and research literature associated with crime prevention,
and discusses the interventions most commonly applied to crime
problems. The authors review the theoretical underpinnings of these
and analyses evidence for their efficacy. Cybercrime Prevention is
split into three sections which examine primary prevention,
secondary prevention and tertiary prevention. It provides a
thorough discussion of what works and what does not, and offers a
formulaic account of how traditional crime prevention interventions
can be reimagined to apply to the digital realm.
