Frequently Asked Questions
What is considered a cyber crime?
Cyber crime refers to offences involving the misuse of digital systems or online platforms, such as hacking, phishing, or unauthorised access. These offences can range from minor breaches to more severe actions affecting individuals or organisations.
They are often regulated under laws addressing technology misuse.
What evidence is commonly used in computer crime cases?
Evidence in these cases can include electronic records, online activity logs, or data retrieved from digital devices. Such evidence may require technical analysis to verify its authenticity and relevance.
A legal review is necessary to determine how it applies to the specific charges.
Are there defences available for computer crime charges?
Defences depend on the facts of the case and may include disputing the evidence, lack of intent, or demonstrating an error in how the evidence was collected or interpreted. Each defence strategy requires a detailed examination of the circumstances surrounding the case.
What penalties are associated with cyber crime offences?
Penalties can include fines or imprisonment, depending on the charge and severity of the offence. Courts may also consider mitigating or aggravating factors, such as the impact of the crime or the offender’s intent, during sentencing.
