Using Experts for Detecting and Litigating Computer Crime Available to Purchase

Whilst the development of a crime‐proof computer operating system seems very unlikely, more could be done to deter, discover, litigate and punish computer criminals. Because of the limited sophistication of security devices, experts shy away from them, while managers and attorneys (unaware of their limited sophistication) refrain from using security devices either because of their high cost or in the erroneous belief that computer crime is a low risk. To control computer crime, the computer experts should assist both management and the legal community,especially where management loosely carries out the existing policies,procedures, and preventive controls, giving a false impression of high security which makes it even more difficult to discover and gather evidence of crime.
