What You'll Learn

The age of the digital economy is upon us, for both general public and criminals alike. Our always-connected lives and our dealings with digital assets, coupled with the transnational nature of these crimes and attendant challenges in the investigative process, result in such digital crimes being a real and present threat to our daily activities. It is therefore imperative that we educate ourselves on the types of crimes that can be committed in the digital space, so that we prevent ourselves from being the victims of online scams, doxxing, phishing or hacking attempts.

This module examines the various types of offences committed in the digital space, and offers insight into the steps that have been taken to tackle this increasingly prevalent threat. Participants will also gain a deeper appreciation of the methodology, considerations and tools used to investigate and prosecute these offences, as well as understand the steps that may be taken to recover virtual property that has been removed as a consequence of a criminal offence.

Entry Requirements

Participant should have at least:
• a Bachelor's Degree or
• Diploma with at least 3 years working experience
