What is the overlap between criminal justice and cybercrime? How does this overlap relate to the other disciplines discussed in this class?

There are unavoidable connections between the criminal justice system and cybercrime. Technology has a critical role in criminality since it is implicated in a significant share of crimes. If you commit a cybercrime, you are breaking the law, and the criminal justice system will hold you accountable. A point of intersection between the criminal justice system and cybercrime is the study of human variables, which criminologists use to understand human behavior. In criminal justice and cybercrime, criminologists talk about the role of the human factor. In addition, those with a background in criminal justice may be more prepared to work in the easier parts of cybersecurity because of their education and training. Forensics in the context of computer, electronic, and other cybercrime investigations is an important part of the field of cybercrime. Digital forensics is another area where criminal justice and cybercrime overlap because it was created by criminal justice professionals. Consequently, academics in the field of criminal justice play a key role in the development of digital forensics. How criminal justice can be used to help identify appropriate cybercrime activities and reactions is one of the most major areas of overlap. Other topics studied in this course may have a connection to these connections. A few of these cyber crimes are hacking, malware, identity theft, social engineering, and software piracy. These crimes can be committed by an individual who enjoys a high degree of respect and social standing within the industry or profession in which they work. These crimes can also be committed in retaliation to a company for reassigning them from their job or because they do not adhere to showcasing the proper ethics of how they should conduct themselves in an organization. The criminal justice system and cyber crime will always share a connection as technology and the need for individuals to commit crimes will continue throughout society.
