Obiettivo Transnational criminal networks utilise Information Communication Technology (ICT) to commit ‘old’ and ‘new’ types of crime. ICT assists in transnational crime (i.e. hacking) and also as a way to exchange information or plan new crimes. Empirical research has provided ample evidence that social and familial networks play a crucial role in the formation and growth (recruitment) of criminal networks. However, ICT now makes it possible for organised crime to form networks without the restrictions of geographic proximity and with the growth in the online gambling sector estimated at 13 billion Euros per annum in the EU worth approximately 15 percent of EU gambling market such sums of revenue attracts unwanted attention from organised cybercriminals. This proposal will therefore examine online gambling and extortion networks. The reason(s) for this is that gambling – illegal and legal – has often attracted organised crime, and empirical evidence regarding online gambling and extortion in EU is limited. The objectives of this research are:establish tools and technique that facilitate management of internal/external cyber-threats to online gambling sector validate tools and techniques that will facilitate the management of internal/external cyber-threats to online gambling sectorset standards of information management set standards of dissemination and flows of information to cybersecurity centres from online gambling sector in EUThis is to be achieved by:interviews with key individuals (systems managers at online sites and law enforcement)analyse data for information flows and breaking down volume of information into accessible data for internal and external use. analyse current decision making processes/systems and processing information analyse exchange of data to improve and implement best practice available in cybersecurity across EU online gambling sites Campo scientifico natural sciencescomputer and information sciencesinternetsocial scienceslawlaw enforcementsocial scienceslawcriminologysocial scienceseconomics and businessbusiness and managementemploymentnatural sciencescomputer and information sciencescomputer security Parole chiave Law Gambling Organised Crime Criminal Networks Programma(i) H2020-EU.1.3. - EXCELLENT SCIENCE - Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Main Programme H2020-EU.1.3.2. - Nurturing excellence by means of cross-border and cross-sector mobility Argomento(i) MSCA-IF-2015-EF - Marie Skłodowska-Curie Individual Fellowships (IF-EF) Invito a presentare proposte H2020-MSCA-IF-2015 Vedi altri progetti per questo bando Meccanismo di finanziamento MSCA-IF - Marie Skłodowska-Curie Individual Fellowships (IF) Coordinatore UNIVERSITY OF WOLVERHAMPTON Contribution nette de l'UE € 146 591,10 Indirizzo WULFRUNA STREET WV1 1LY Wolverhampton Regno Unito Mostra sulla mappa Regione West Midlands (England) West Midlands Wolverhampton Tipo di attività Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Collegamenti Contatta l’organizzazione Opens in new window Sito web Opens in new window Partecipazione a programmi di R&I dell'UE Opens in new window Rete di collaborazione HORIZON Opens in new window Costo totale € 146 591,10
