Long Description This course will examine the scope of cyber-crime and its impact on todays system of criminal justice, both domestic and internationally. Topics include the use of computer technology to commit crimes such as hacking and other cyber-dependent crimes, as well as means of committing more traditional violations of law. Also included will be an analysis of the legal considerations facing law enforcement and other cyber-security professionals who are tasked with meeting the challenges of discovering, investigating and prosecuting cyber-crimes. Since our economy and security enterprises are so dependent on the electronic dissemination of information, effective measures to secure this vital resource will be explored. Given the fact that funds are transferred electronically, the electronic transmission of finances will be examined as well as the more basic methods of raising and laundering funds in order to advance transnational organized crime and terrorist activities throughout the world.
