Other issues are explored including cybercrime investigations, organized cybercrime, the use of algorithms in policing, cybervictimization, and the theories used to explain cybercrime. Graham and Smith make a conceptual distinction between a terrestrial, physical environment and a single digital environment produced through networked computers. Conceptualizing the online space as a distinct environment for social interaction links this text with assumptions made in the fields of urban sociology or rural criminology. Students in sociology and criminology will have a familiar entry point for understanding what may appear to be a technologically complex course of study. The authors organize all forms of cybercrime and cyberdeviance by applying a typology developed by David Wall: cybertrespass, cyberdeception, cyberviolence, and cyberpornography. This typology is simple enough for students just beginning their inquiry into cybercrime. Because it is based on legal categories of trespassing, fraud, violent crimes against persons, and moral transgressions it provides a solid foundation for deeper study. Taken together, Graham and Smith's application of a digital environment and Wall's cybercrime typology makes this an ideal upper level text for students in sociology and criminal justice. It is also an ideal introductory text for students within the emerging disciplines of cybercrime and cybersecurity Defining and Describing Organized CrimeThe Activities of Organized Crime in the Digital Environment; Organized Cybercrime Myths; The Unique Form of Organized Crime Online: Networks; Division of Labor in Organized Cybercrime Networks; Prosecuting Organized Crime in the Digital Environment; Conclusion; Vocabulary; Study Questions; Critical Thinking Exercise; Notes; References; Chapter 8 Algorithms, Big Data, and Policing; Understanding Algorithms; Big Data; Linking Algorithms and Big Data; Thinking About the Impact of Algorithms and Big Data; Algorithms and Big Data in Policing Identity TheftPhishing; Advance Fee Frauds; Romance Scams; Selling of Counterfeit Goods; Pump and Dump Schemes; Digital Piracy; Cryptocurrency and Fraud; Conclusion; Vocabulary; Study Questions; Critical Thinking Exercise; Notes; References; Chapter 6 Investigating Cybercrimes; Introduction; Digital Forensics; Investigating Data Trails; Online Undercover Investigations; Pluralized Policing in the Digital Environment; Law Enforcement Challenges; Conclusion; Vocabulary; Study Questions; Critical Thinking Exercise; Notes; References; Chapter 7 Organized Cybercrime; Introduction The Categories of CybercrimeSummary; Vocabulary; Study Questions; Critical Thinking Exercise; Notes; References; Chapter 2 Cybertrespass; Introduction; Demystifying Hacking; The Computer Fraud and Abuse Act; Exploring Hacking; Gaining Unauthorized Access; After Unauthorized Access; Summary; Vocabulary; Study Questions; Critical Thinking Exercise; Notes; References; Chapter 3 Cyberpornography; Introduction; Types of Cyberpornography; Pornography Consumption in the Digital Environment; Legislating Pornography in the Digital Environment; Impacts of Pornography Consumption The Distribution and Consumption of Online Child PornographySexting; Sex Work; Internet Facilitated Sex Trafficking; Conclusion; Vocabulary; Study Questions; Critical Thinking Exercise; Notes; References; Chapter 4 Cyberviolence; Introduction; Comparing Violence in the Physical Environment with Cyberviolence; Types of Cyberviolence; Cyberbullying; Trolling and Flaming; Flaming; Hate Speech; Cyberstalking; Online Shaming; Conclusion; Vocabulary; Study Questions; Critical Thinking Exercise; Notes; References; Chapter 5 Cyberdeception and Theft; Introduction; Types of Cyberdeception and Theft |
