Challenges before crime in a digital era: Outsmarting cybercrime offenders – Workshop on Cybercrime, Computer Crime Prevention and the Surveillance Society

On 5 November 2010 within the framework of the Fifth International Conference on Legal, Security and Privacy Issues in IT Law (LSPI) and associated conference series a Closing Workshop was held at the Universitat Internacional de Catalunya (UIC) to review and address the main challenges of Cybercrime. The event complemented the CLSR 150th Anniversary Seminar on Digital Identity held the previous evening at the Barcelona office of law firm Roca Juyent. The Workshop was supported by the Computer Forensics Laboratories CFLabs and by CLSR. Copies of the journal were distributed via a booth at the event to enable relevant papers published in the journal to be accessed during the workshop event. The Cybercrime Workshop provided an opportunity for academics, practitioners and consultants from different backgrounds and nationalities to come together and exchange ideas to discuss significant developments in Cybercrime and emerging issues on IT security.
