Background

Criminal justice authorities are confronted with a continuous increase in the scale and quantity of cybercrime and other offences involving electronic evidence, including those perpetrated through the use of emerging technologies. These can include the potential for offenders to weaponise new technologies, to use them to detect vulnerabilities or to automate attacks, or to seek to manipulate technologies such as artificial intelligence for criminal purposes.

The new and emerging technological tools available to cyber criminals introduce further exacerbate existing issues related to retaining and accessing electronic evidence, admissibility of electronic evidence, territoriality and jurisdiction, and international and public-private cooperation. As such, they present a significant challenge to the effective investigation and prosecution of cybercrime.

Objectives

This webinar aims to:

address the possible challenges and opportunities regarding international cooperation to prevent, investigate and prosecute cybercrime using emerging technologies;
present and exchange best practices and resources on international private-public cooperation on cybercrime prevention and investigation using new technologies.

Expected outcomes

At the end of the webinar, participants are expected to have:

increased their knowledge of specific methods, best practices and real-life cases of international collaboration to prevent, investigate and prosecute cybercrime using new technologies;
become aware of the types of support available through global capacity-building initiatives.
