Cyber Crime and Cyber Terrorism is a complete, easy-to-understand introduction to cyber crime, cyber terrorism and information warfare. Assuming no prior technology knowledge, the authors look at theories on hackers and other digital criminals, along with investigative, research and legal strategies targeting their crimes. Like no other text on the market, it bridges the gap between criminal justice and the technical issues that emerge in cyber crime investigations.

The 4th Edition describes new technologies, social implications and federal statutes related to cyber crime. It includes updated review questions and activities tying concepts together, while providing an enriching critical-thinking experience.
