As cyber crime has proliferated exponentially across the globe, those in the criminal justice field have lacked suitable and updated knowledge concerning the pedestrian reality of modern cyber crime. Popular media has created an image of cyber crime that suggests a lone hacker breaking through seemingly impossible security measures to access lucrative secret data. Crimes like these are very rar...

Modern day crime scene investigation methods are continually being enhanced by the application of new technologies used to better analyze crime scene data and improve the presentation of such data in the courtroom, helping to solve and prosecute crimes. This paper describes a new system called IC-CRIME that integrates several new technologies to meet both of these needs. IC-CRIME employs laser ...

Recently, the increase in “spam,” distributed denialof-service (DDoS) attacks, and other acts of online crime are facilitated by “botnets,” which are networks of compromised computer systems executing “bot” programs. In this paper, we precisely define the terms bot and botnet and explain their workings. We describe how miscreants have used and continue to use botnets to launch the aforementione...

INTRODUCTION We have seen a rise in computer misuse at a global level and also the development of new policies and strategies to describe organized computer security attacks against the information society–these strategies are described as being “information warfare.” This is very different from the traditional view of attack against computers by the individual, determined hacker, a cyber warri...

Objectives The classification of crime into discrete categories entails a massive loss of information. Crimes emerge out of a complex mix of behaviors and situations, yet most of these details cannot be captured by singular crime type labels. This information loss impacts our ability to not only understand the causes of crime, but also how to develop optimal crime prevention strategies. Methods...

In 2007, the Computer & Digital Forensics (C&DF), Criminal Justice (CJ), and Paralegal programs started to employ a mock trial to bring students from these three disciplines together. The event starts with a pre-planned crime scene. CJ students secure and process the crime scene, interview witnesses, and gather evidence. Digital devices are recovered and are forensically processed by the C&DF s...

The prevalence of computer and the internet has brought forth the increasing spate of cybercrime activities; hence the need for evidence to attribute a crime to a suspect. The research therefore, centres on evidence, the legal standards applied to digital evidence presented in court and the main sources of evidence in the Windows OS, such as the Registry, slack space and the Windows event log. ...

Digital forensics is the science of laws and technologies fighting computer crimes. It can be divided into two sub-areas, computer forensics and network forensics. Network forensics is still a frontier area of digital forensics and is the focus of this paper. We propose to classify network forensic investigations into three categories based on when law enforcement officers conduct investigation...
