Methodology of cybercrime investigation
Methodology of cybercrime investigation

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to analyse the phenomenon of cybercrime focusing mainly on the methodology of investigation. Cybercrime can be described as one of the modern types of crime, which, no doubt, is also dealt with by forensics. Its origins date back to the 60s and 70s of the last century and it is currently one of the fastest growing types of crime and at the same time it is a highly sophisticated crime. In the process of investigating cybercrime, it is possible to encounter a number of forensic traces, some of which are typical for cybercrime, especially material traces, digital, computer traces, documents and factual evidence, and memory traces. Given these highly specific forensic traces, the investigating authority must adapt not only the process of securing these traces, but also the process of cybercrime investigation itself so that the individual evidence is legally secured so that the perpetrators of the crime can be identified and fairly punished in the subsequent process.
