Why Do We Teach This?
Time and technology continually create new challenges in the legal profession. With the proliferation of eCommerce and the Internet, computer crime is becoming more common and more costly to combat. Most computer crimes are activities that are already prohibited by law, such as theft of intellectual property and child pornography, with the difference being that a computer has been added to the equation. Although there are ties to common legal concepts, computer networks present complex issues that require a thorough understanding of the law as well as the technical understanding of networks. This hands-on course provides attorneys with both the knowledge and experience to understand and respond appropriately to cyber attacks.
