About Journal

British Journal of Cyber Criminology (BJCC) is a peer-reviewed online (open access) journal focused on the criminal activities that occur within the cyber environment, such as those involving computer networks, information systems, and the internet. It attempts to understand the motivations, opportunities, and consequences of cybercrime, as well as the role of law enforcement in preventing, detecting, and responding to such crime.

Cyber criminology is a multi-disciplinary approach to examine the causes, consequences, and control of cybercrimes. It also looks at the various forms of cybercrime, including hacking, online fraud, identity theft, and online child exploitation. Cyber criminology is used to develop effective strategies to address cybercrime, assess the effectiveness of existing laws and regulations, as well as identify risk factors associated with cybercrime and develop evidence-based strategies to reduce its occurrence.

Aim and Scope

Cyber criminology is an emerging interdisciplinary field of research that focuses on understanding, preventing, and responding to cybercrimes and digital deviance. Cyber criminology aims to better understand the causes, patterns and effects of cyber-related crime and digital deviance, and to create strategies for preventing, detecting and responding to these types of criminal behavior. The scope of cyber criminology encompasses a wide range of topics, including online victimization, cyberbullying, cyber harassment, cyber talking, data breaches, online fraud, online child exploitation, identity theft, dark web activities, computer science, sociology, psychology, economics, and law and terrorism, among others.

Cyber criminology also examines how legal, social, and technological measures can be used to prevent, investigate, and respond to cyber-enabled crime. In doing so, cyber criminology seeks to bridge gaps between academic and practitioner communities, as well as inform policy and practice.  Cyber criminology aims to develop an evidence-based understanding of how cybercrime operates and to identify effective strategies for preventing, addressing, and deterring it. By understanding the factors that influence cybercrime, we can become better prepared to protect ourselves, our communities, and our organizations from harm.
