Description

Cyber attacks perpetrated against businesses, governments, organizations and individuals have been occurring for decades. Many attacks are discovered only after the data has been exploited or sold on the criminal markets. Cyber attacks damage both the finances and reputations of businesses and cause damage to the ultimate victims of the crime. From the perspective of the criminal, the current state of inconsistent security policies and lax investigative procedures is a profitable and low-risk opportunity for cyber attacks. Criminals can cause immense harm to individuals or businesses online and make large sums of money knowing that victims rarely report the matter to the police. 

The "Cybercrime Investigators Handbook" is an innovative guide that approaches cybercrime investigation from the field-practitioner’s perspective. In this book, you will learn how to commence an investigation from the location the crime occurred and collect the evidence necessary to locate and prosecute the offender. Additionally, you will learn how to locate, lawfully seize, preserve, examine, interpret and manage the technical evidence that is vital for effective cybercrime investigation.

This Book Provides:

  • Practical cybercrime guidance with clear, easy-to-understand language
  • Guidance to help your company comply with GDPR guidelines
  • Expert advice from a law enforcement professional who specializes in cybercrime investigation and IT security
