The Queensland ICCCF conference will focus on the massive increase in technological developments in both personal computing and in smart-phone and wireless device advances in recent years. These developments have had, in turn, an impact on how technology-enabled crimes are expanding throughout the Asia Pacific region and beyond. To understand and combat cybercrime, one must not only focus upon research (and the incorporation of research results into policy and practice), but upon collaboration in the ‘global village’ of cyberspace.
Thus, the theme for the 5th Annual ICCCF 2017 is ‘Cybercrime Research, Policy and Practice: the Collaboration Imperative.’ And the theme will canvass (though not limited to) the topics listed below; particularly topics related to research, policy and practice: the collaboration imperative:
- Issues of personal information and identity crime;
- Intellectual property-related issues in cyberspace;
- O2O and mobile devices;
- Computer forensic investigation;
- Theory and practice of the Internet of Things;
- Terrorism and the Internet;
- Illicit networks online;
- Online child exploitation;
- Strategic analysis;
- Modelling of telecommunications and network data;
- Personal and corporate activities in the cloud;
- Maintenance of digital information and data mining;
- Law enforcement (public and private) and cyberspace;
- Android and iPhone OS forensics (including apps-related issues);
- Biometric and other solutions to data security and security of personal information;
- Cybercrime and criminal justice process;
- Technology-enabled detection and prevention of cybercrime;
- Cyber-profiteering;
- Socio-legal issues related to cybercrime research, policy, practice and collaboration;
- Cybercrime and digital forensics education.
Call for Papers Now OPENS!
Listed below are two paper submission streams, please choose which stream best fits your intention. Authors seeking to have their papers considered for IEEE indexing/publication in IEEE Xplore will be required to submit a fully completed, camera-ready paper, 10 pages (or less) in length, within two weeks of receiving notification that their papers have been accepted for publication. Presenting authors whose papers have been accepted must also complete the registration process and pay their registration fee no later than March 31, 2016. Please note that papers submitted for publication in IEEE Xplore must be formatted using an IEEE-approved template, available at http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html.
For criminologists and other social scientists who wish to present a paper at the conference, but do not wish to have their paper considered for IEEE indexing/publication in IEEE Xplore, please submit an abstract for your paper. The acceptance of your paper for presentation at the conference will be based upon a peer review of the strength of your abstract.
All abstracts maximum length no more than 300 words.
