Article Name : | | AN EXAMINATION OF CYBERCRIME AND CYBERCRIME RESEARCH | Author Name : | | Mane Ajay , Khedekar Ajinkya Raman and Nileshraje Bhonsale | Publisher : | | Ashok Yakkaldevi | Article Series No. : | | GRT-5607 | Article URL : | | ![](images/pdf_download.png) | Author Profile View PDF In browser | Abstract : | | This paper provides an overview of the growing cybercrime problem and reviews two criminological theories that have been applied to the study of cybercrime and cybercrime victimization. Legislation which defines cybercrimes, establishes jurisdiction, and provides the legal base for prosecuting such crimes has been developed at both the federal and state level. Many federal law enforcement agencies have departments that attempt to combat a broad range of computer crimes from computer intrusions to intellectual property theft. Cyber victimization has affected many individuals and businesses in the United States and this problem seems to have increased as the use of computers and the internet increased over the last decade. Finally this paper concludes with some suggestions for areas of future research. | Keywords : | | |
