As we look at the role that cyberspace plays in traditional law enforcement strategies and how it hinders them more than helps them, we see that the common practice of just talking to people and having direct physical evidence is way less likely and harder to obtain behind the security and privacy of some organizations. A traditional crime that would be more difficult to prosecute in its digital form would be Sex Crimes Against Children, mainly because it requires more evidence and more criteria have to be met for that criminal to be held liable.

I think there is a lag between the reality of technology-connected crime and how it is represented in mainstream criminal justice research due to the fact of how recently it has become more and more prevalent, compared to traditional in person crimes that are more dry-cut and have been around for a longer period of time.

I believe that Cyber and Surveillance Law and Governance bridges the gap between traditional social sciences and STEM disciplines by making those learning the subjects view their topics on a wider scale while requiring that they take a more broad and complex approach to how the subjects are portrayed.

In my opinion, the criminal justice system should not only focus on creating more advanced and well trained units specifically tasked with taking on crimes related to the cyber realm, but that each and every traditional role, regardless of time on the job or experience, should be required to do more training when it comes to how digital evidence is handled as well as the cybercrimes themselves.
