"Cybercriminals are not as 'anonymous' as we think"

The key to solving cybercrimes is to understand the human side of cybercriminals in relation to their living situation, activities, operations, and who they know. Researchers of the Human Cybercriminal Project in Oxford’s Department of Sociology have shared their work that suggests the importance of understanding the economic status, infrastructure, and corruption level of a country in which cybercrime is often highly prevalent. Research shows that the examination of these factors could help in better understanding, investigating, and fighting against cybercrime. This article further discusses the details of this study and how understanding the backstories of cybercriminals would improve upon the investigation of cybercrimes.
