Cybercrime Investigations In Turkey

General

The fact that the internet and information technologies are an increasingly large part of our lives has its pros and cons. While it is easier to communicate and many transactions such as banking, investment and shopping may be conducted online, people are more vulnerable to cybercrime since all of our data is stored in computers and online.

The Oxford Dictionary defines cybercrime as "crime that is committed using the internet, for example by stealing somebody's personal or bank details or by infecting their computer with a virus"¹. Naturally, as the importance of the internet and information technologies has grown, offenders have found more sophisticated and harder to trace methods to obtain information from others.
