Objective

As the use of the internet and other computer networks has grown exponentially in recent years, so has the opportunity for online unlawful activities. Criminals can trade and share information masking their identity, make contact with and gather information on victims, and communicate with coconspirators.

This seminar will look at different forms of special investigation techniques to tackle internet crimes (remote investigations, online
surveillance, covert investigations) and at the challenges posed by encrypted data, proxy servers and cloud computing.

Key topics

  • Remote investigations and online surveillance
  • Interception, search and seizure
  • Encryption, proxy servers and internet archives
  • Electronic evidence and the essential difference between e-evidence and “traditional” forms of evidence
  • Cross-border access to data

Who should attend?

Judges, prosecutors, police officers, defence lawyers, civil servants, policymakers and  representatives of the internet industry.

About the project

This seminar is part of a large-scale project sponsored by the European Commission and entitled “Investigating, prosecuting and adjudicating criminal cases in the online world: challenges (and opportunities) posed by the internet to EU legal practitioners”. It consists of five seminars taking place in Budapest, Madrid, Lisbon, Cracow and Trier.

Each seminar will have a specific focus:

  • Internet-related money laundering (Budapest, March 2016)
  • Specific legal challenges related to credit cards frauds (Madrid, May 2016)
  • Special techniques to track crime proceeds on the internet: remote investigations, surveillance, interception, search and seizure (Lisbon, November 2016)
  • Soliciting children online for sexual purposes: effectiveness of covert internet investigations (Cracow, April 2017)
  • Conducting online investigations: challenges for judges, prosecutors and defence lawyers (Trier, June 2017)

Please note that due to the large number of applications for this series on online investigations, participants can register only for 1 event (at their choice) out of the 5 contemplated above.
