Modern forms of communication and data storage offer many advantages but also present challenges, and opportunities for the unscrupulous, exposing the unwitting to exploitation by those who seek to unlawfully acquire their data or to the unauthorised access of the technology upon which we all rely.

A New Type of Crime
Cybercrime is a fairly new and constantly developing field. Investigations with an online or digital element are invariably technically challenging and complex and require skill and relevant experience. Many cases also have an international flavour and UK investigations are often merely one part of coordinated action by an international group of law enforcement bodies, often involving the FBI. These issues, together with the sheer volume of data that is invariably seized during a computer based investigation, pose real challenges to law enforcement agencies across the globe.

How does legal aid work?
