Crime Scene in Cybercrime Criminal Offenses: Evidence Management and Processing
Florent Azemi
Since the 1990s, when the first computers were introduced as workplace tools and the technological expansion began, computers, information technologies, and the internet have become an indispensable part of our daily lives. Computers are now an essential tool in all aspects of life, including business, telecommunications, and personal use. Given the increased use of information technologies in our businesses and daily lives, it is not surprising that computer-related crimes are on the rise. The widespread use of computers in our society has resulted in a rapid rise in issues and problems associated with crime, particularly cybercrime. As cybercrime committed via the internet and computer networks becomes more prevalent, courts require technical personnel who are experts in this field. The proper legal framework and division of investigative responsibility are not always clear. Law enforcement faces new challenges as it works to improve its capacity to investigate and prosecute cyber...

Digital forensic investigations are growing in number not only in the United States but in nations around the world. The activities of multinational corporations and cybercrime cross jurisdictional boundaries on a daily basis. This investigation sets out to perform a qualitative analysis of the requirements needed for acceptance of digital evidence in multiple jurisdictions and the qualifications of digital forensic examiners by focusing on three case studies. The countries chosen are the United States, South Africa and Namibia. The research lays the foundation by examining existing international laws and treaties, and then uses the three case studies to address constitutional issues, civil and criminal law as they pertain to digital evidence. By ascertaining where the similarities and differences lie, a grounded theory approach is used to provide digital forensic examiners, legal staff and investigators a basis that can be used to approach digital cases that come from or must be pr...

Evidence is an important concept in order to reveal whether a crime really exists or not and integrate it with all its elements. There are numerous methods of crime scene investigation in forensic cases. During the judgment phase, the most important factor that will help understand and decide the manner in which the incident took place is the evidence that will provide proof with regard to the incident. Therefore, evidence helps prosecutors and judges correctly understand and establish the relationship between the crime and the criminals and prove the committed crime and ensure correct, fair and rapid execution of the trial with the aim of reaching the material truth. Evidence obtained in the crime scene provides information with regard to the manner in which the crime was committed, the time of the crime, thebehaviour of the perpetrator, the suspect, the victim and the crime scene ensuring the establishment of the relationship between them. On the other hand, with the digital syste...

The Nigeria Police and Problems of Cybercrime Investigation: Need for Adequate Training1
Ikenga Oraegbunam
Cyber criminality presents unique problems of investigation for prosecution due to the global nature of the internet. On the internet where territorial boundaries disappear, criminals can operate from any part of the globe. Thus, the transnational nature of cyberspace poses significant difficulties for law enforcement and prosecution which ordinarily must take place within national borders. Unfortunately, an adequate global uniformity or harmony needed for fighting cybercrime is not available even as anti-cybercrime laws are still lacking in many developing nations including Nigeria. Added to this is the near anonymity of the offenders. Hence, it is discovered that while computer technology will continue to be used in not only novel but also many traditional crimes, the nature and particular features of these crimes will pose new and unique challenges for investigators. To reduce the rate of cybercrime in Nigeria therefore, this study advocates for establishment of computer forensic department within the Police. It also moves for adequate training and retraining of those who man the unit. This paper recommends too that in the recruitment process of the Police, those who are knowledgeable in the affairs of computer technology should be enlisted.
