Product description

Cybercrime: Legislation, Cases and Commentary provides a comprehensive analysis of cybercrime legislation and case law in Australian jurisdictions. Since the publication of the second edition, there have been significant developments in legislation, cases and policies directed at cybercrime. More generally, there have been new developments in the regimes governing law enforcement access to data, telecommunications and internet service provider obligations, and key institutions dealing with cybersecurity and data protection.
Media coverage of cybercrime continues to grow, along with increased media attention on cybersecurity; the balance between online safety and privacy, and legal disputes over computer searches using warrants; and privilege claims, including over journalists’ sources.

Cybercrime: Legislation, Cases and Commentary is an essential resource for law enforcement and legal practitioners as well as students. The legislation in this book is current to 1 September 2023.
