Project description
The human factors behind juvenile cyber-delinquency
Psychology, criminology, anthropology, neurobiology and cyberpsychology will be combined in a multi-disciplinary investigation to detect and explain the drivers of crime in cyberspace. With so many devices connected to the internet and the rapid rise in the digital economy, the boom in cybercrime is inevitable. The EU-funded CC-DRIVER project will focus on the human factors behind juvenile cyber-delinquency and adolescent hacking. The findings will assist in the development of mitigation and deterrence strategies. By investigating 'cybercrime-as-a-service', the project will design policy templates for combatting online cybercrime and produce a youth self-assessment online metric tool designed to help understand cybercriminal behaviour and prompt positive pathways. The project will also conduct a comparative analysis of cybercrime legislation and policy in eight Member States.
