Advancements in Cyber Crime Investigations and Modern Data Analytics

by Shishir Kumar Shandilya (Editor), Devangana Sujay (Editor), V.B. Gupta (Editor)

Overview

This book presents a fresh perspective on combating cyber crime, showcasing innovative solutions from experts across various fields. With the integration of artificial intelligence (AI), contemporary challenges are addressed with state-of-the-art strategies. The book discusses a wide range of timely issues within the domain of cyber crime and investigation, emphasizing AI-driven solutions and future multidisciplinary perspectives. As data becomes central to all digital interactions, it also becomes increasingly vulnerable, making it a prime target for adversaries. This comprehensive volume compiles technical approaches to counter, investigate, and manage these complex avenues of misconduct under the umbrella of "Cyber Crime".

Key Topics:

• LLMs as a Solution for SARs Triaging
• Technical Capacities to Counter CSAM
• A Journey of Mobile Forensic Investigation
• Digital Forensics Solving Financial Crimes
• Deepfake-Driven Financial Crimes and Countermeasures

This book offers a thorough examination of the current landscape of cyber crime, the capabilities available to combat it, and the advanced measures required to stay ahead. A detailed roadmap of digital forensics, the science of decrypting cyber crime, is a key highlight, alongside an exploration of the rising capabilities of AI. We extend our gratitude to all the contributors and hope this book answers many questions while igniting curiosity and providing a stimulating intellectual experience.
