The Sharing Economy for Tackling Cybercrime

Since the rapid transformation in information technologies (IT) and the internet, socio-economic interaction between individuals has significantly transformed. People increasingly depend on digital technologies for socialisation, communication, and exchanging goods and services. The technological advantages in cyberspace, while facilitating connectivity and making life easier for individuals, also brought new problems. One of these problems is called cybercrime; all the criminal activities carried out in cyberspace. The easy accessibility and anonymity offered by the internet not only encourage offenders but also create a big challenge for those investigating cybercrime. Tackling cybercrime often requires specialised technical knowledge, skills, and resources.
