Descrizione del progetto
Un modo divertente per combattere la criminalità informatica
Con Internet che è diventato parte integrante della vita dei giovani, gli esperti cercano il modo di controllarne l’uso eccessivo. Più della metà dei cittadini dell’UE si sente poco o per nulla informata sulle minacce informatiche e l’86 % degli europei ritiene che il rischio di diventare vittima della criminalità informatica sia in rapido aumento. Il progetto RAYUELA, finanziato dall’UE, si propone di riunire forze dell’ordine, sociologi, psicologi, antropologi, esperti legali, informatici e ingegneri per sviluppare nuove metodologie che creino una migliore comprensione dei fattori che influenzano i comportamenti online legati ai nuovi modi di delinquere messi in atto nel campo della criminalità informatica. Inoltre, i giovani saranno incoraggiati a indirizzare la loro abilità tecnologica per creare un cambiamento positivo nel settore della sicurezza informatica.
Obiettivo
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.
