商品描述

This book outlines the complexity in understanding different forms of cyber attacks, the actors involved, and their motivations. It explores the key challenges in investigating and prosecuting politically motivated cyber attacks, the lack of consistency within regulatory frameworks, and the grey zone that this creates, for cybercriminals to operate within.

Connecting diverse literatures on cyberwarfare, cyberterrorism, and cyberprotests, and categorising the different actors involved - state-sponsored/supported groups, hacktivists, online protestors - this book compares the means and methods used in attacks, the various attackers, and the current strategies employed by cybersecurity agencies. It examines the current legislative framework and proposes ways in which it could be reconstructed, moving beyond the traditional and fragmented definitions used to manage offline violence.

This book is an important contribution to the study of cyber attacks within the areas of criminology, criminal justice, law, and policy. It is a compelling reading for all those engaged in cybercrime, cybersecurity, and digital forensics.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書概述了理解不同形式的網絡攻擊、參與其中的行為者以及他們的動機的複雜性。它探討了調查和起訴出於政治動機的網絡攻擊所面臨的主要挑戰,監管框架的不一致性以及這種情況所創造的灰色地帶,使得網絡犯罪分子能夠在其中活動。

本書將關於網絡戰、網絡恐怖主義和網絡抗議的不同文獻連接起來,並將參與其中的不同行為者進行分類,包括國家支持的組織、駭客活動者和網絡抗議者。本書比較了攻擊中使用的手段和方法、不同的攻擊者以及當前由網絡安全機構採取的策略。它檢視了當前的立法框架,並提出了重構的方式,超越傳統和分散的定義,以應對線下暴力。

本書對犯罪學、刑事司法、法律和政策領域中的網絡攻擊研究做出了重要貢獻。對於從事網絡犯罪、網絡安全和數字取證的人來說,這是一本引人入勝的讀物。
