About this badge

The exponential expansion of computer technologies and the Internet has spawned a variety of new criminal behaviors and provided criminals with a new environment in which to operate. Cybercrime knows no physical geographic boundaries, as the Internet provides criminals with access to people, institutions, and businesses around the globe. The reach of the threat defies conventional notions of jurisdiction of sovereign nations, thus making the targeting of cybercriminals particularly challenging for authorities worldwide. This course seeks to enter into the complex world of cybercrime by exploring its evolution and by critically evaluating the international and domestic measures enacted to fight it. During this course, gain a basic understanding of cyberlaw and cybercrime investigation techniques; explore issues related to cyberliberties and examine the relationship between these rights and cybersecurity; and analyze global policies to combat cyberterrorism. During a final scenarios exercise, assume the role of a cybersecurity investigator and present your findings and recommendations to the group.
