EMPOWERING AND EDUCATING YOUNG PEOPLE FOR THE INTERNET BY PLAYING

Descripción del proyecto

Una forma divertida de luchar contra la ciberdelincuencia

Ahora que Internet forma parte integrante de la vida de los jóvenes, los expertos buscan métodos para controlar su uso excesivo. Más de la mitad de los ciudadanos de la Unión Europea consideran que no están debidamente informados, cuando lo están, sobre las ciberamenazas y un 86 % de los europeos opina que el riesgo de convertirse en víctima de la ciberdelincuencia está aumentando rápidamente. El proyecto RAYUELA, financiado con fondos europeos, tiene como objetivo reunir a representantes de las fuerzas de seguridad, sociólogos, psicólogos, antropólogos, expertos jurídicos, científicos informáticos e ingenieros para desarrollar metodologías innovadoras que permitan comprenden mejor los factores que afectan al comportamiento en línea relacionado con las nuevas formas de ciberdelincuencia. Además, instará a los jóvenes a aprovechar su destreza tecnológica para lograr un cambio positivo en el ámbito de la ciberseguridad.

Objetivo

The internet has become an integral part of children and young people’s lives. The increased time spent online is prompting questions about whether they are in control of their internet usage. The low level of awareness of cyber threats and their potential impact is a serious issue that translates into the proliferation of incidents due to human mistakes. 51% of EU citizens feel not at all or not well informed about cyber threats and 86% of Europeans believe that the risk of becoming a victim of cybercrime is rapidly increasing. On the other hand, Law enforcement has noted that more and more teenagers and young people are increasingly committing cybercrimes.

This is an international problem which has considerable cost implications; it is estimated that crimes in cyberspace will cost the global economy $445B annually. Understanding the behavioural and developmental aspects of cyber criminality is becoming increasingly important and underlies the necessity of a shift in focus from sanctions to deterrence and prevention.

As a research project, RAYUELA aims to bring together law enforcement agencies (LEAs), sociologists, psychologists, anthropologists, legal experts, computer scientists and engineers, to develop novel methodologies that allow better understanding the factors affecting online behaviour related to new ways of cyber criminality, as well as promoting the potential of these young talents for cybersecurity and technologies.

RAYUELA’s main goal is to better understand the drivers and human factors affecting certain relevant ways of cybercriminality, as well as empower and educate young people (children and teenagers primarily) in the benefits, risks and threats intrinsically linked to the use of the Internet by playing, thus preventing and mitigating cybercriminal behaviour.
