Beyond Boardroom: White-collar Crime in Cyberspace

Abstract

The research topic "Beyond Boardroom: White-collar Crime in Cyberspace" explores the complex interaction between white-collar crime and online. White-collar crime, which has historically been connected to corporate settings, has developed in the digital age, and now extends into internet. The evolution of white-collar crime in cyberspace is examined in this study, along with the types of crimes committed, the rise in cybercrime, and the regulatory bodies tasked with enforcing and preventing it. The study looks at how many forms of white-collar crime, such as insider trading, fraud, embezzlement, money laundering, stealing intellectual property, and cyber fraud, have flourished in cyberspace. It examines how white-collar criminals use new technologies and evolving tactics in cyberspace, including phishing, ransomware assaults, identity theft, and cyber extortion. The study also emphasises
the difficulties and complications involved in identifying, looking into, and prosecuting white-collar crimes in the digital sphere, including jurisdictional concerns, anonymity, and the employment of cutting-edge concealment methods. The study also sheds insight on the rise in cybercrime, emphasising the evolving threat landscape, societal repercussions, and economic impact. It talks about how transnational crimes are committed by white-collar criminals who take advantage of the global nature of cyberspace, making regulation and enforcement difficult. In order to handle white-collar crime in cyberspace, the study also examines the function of regulatory authorities, such as law enforcement agencies, governmental entities, and international organisations. It examines the legal frameworks, rules, and tactics used to combat cybercrime as well as the shortcomings and inadequacies in the
existing legal frameworks. In summary, "Beyond Boardroom: White-collar Crime in Cyberspace" focuses on how white-collar crime has changed in the digital age and how it has affected society. In order to effectively combat white-collar crime in cyberspace and guarantee the integrity of digital environments, it emphasises the necessity for strict regulatory measures, international cooperation, and technological improvements. Policymakers, law enforcement organisations, researchers, and practitioners who want to comprehend and confront the intricate connection between white-collar crime and internet will find the research to be a useful resource.
