JUS 3370 - Introduction to Cybercrime

Credits: 3 hrs
This course is designed to help students to understand and apply the nature of cybercrime in the criminal justice field. Several theories will be presented and will be analyzed in depth and applied to cybercrime cases both past and present. Students will see how major theories have been re-developed to be applied to cybercrime, and by using these theories, students will both develop and explore different strategies for future law enforcement. Students will be presented with common types of fraudulent schemes, as well as several laws that have been enacted and developed specifically for cybercrime. In addition, causes, victimization, legal issues, control strategies, and societal costs regarding the “cybercrime” problem will be explored and evaluated.
