One of the major policy concerns in almost all countries of the world today is the control and containment of cybercrimes. Cybercrimes challenge the very core of societal growth, security, and governance, and the growth and organization of almost all aspects of modern societies are centered on the use of computers and the internet. The criminal use of the computer and the internet can bring an unprecedented degree of harm and destruction, not just in the progress but also in the very continuity and survival of modern digital civilization. The new brave world of hyper connectivity is bringing a new age of social and cultural disorder, misinformation, confusion, and convulsions. Recent years have seen, in almost all countries of the world, the growth of new laws, regulations, and institutions to secure the internet and save the world from the destructions of cybercrime.
