Technological developments and their impact on the criminal justice system

Abstract

Abstract : Today, we are witnessing a new era of scientific and technological advancement, particularly in the field of information and communication technology, which has revolutionized human development at both regional and global levels. The exchange of information and knowledge has become easier and more seamless, contributing to an unprecedented free flow of news and conversations across various communication channels. However, this technological development has been accompanied by numerous risks and challenges, especially given the weakness of regulatory controls, leading to the emergence of a new type of sophisticated crime known as "cybercrime." These crimes are characterized by innovative methods of commission and unconventional characteristics of their perpetrators, posing a direct and clear threat to security and stability at both the regional and global levels.
