GRK 2475: Cyberkriminalität und Forensische Informatik
Cyberkriminalität wird angesichts der wachsenden gesellschaftlichen Bedeutung der Informationstechnologie zu einer immer größeren Bedrohung. Gleichzeitig bieten sich neue Möglichkeiten der Strafverfolgung, wie etwa automatisierte Datensammlung und -auswertung im Netz oder Überwachungsprogramme.

Das GRK „Cyberkriminalität und Forensische Informatik“ bringt Expertinnen und Experten der Informatik und Rechtswissenschaften zusammen, um das Forschungsfeld „Strafverfolgung von Cyberkriminalität“ systematisch zu erschließen.
