Cybercrime

Introduction

Cybercrime is a pressing and prevalent problem for the information society. It carries with it a considerable set of associated risks for individuals, business and industry, and public administration and e-government. Multidisciplinary views on the issues raised for public policy by cybercrime are actively being sought by policy-making communities. This special issue on cybercrime brings together a range of articles that exemplify many of the problems that the abuse of networked technologies brings to the Internet society as a whole and which engage with policy responses that impact upon national and supra-national legislation, cooperation in law enforcement, public-private cooperation, and international coordination against transnational crime.
