Cyber-Crime: Issues, Data Sources, and Feasibility of Collecting Policy-Reported Statistics
Cyber-crime is generally defined as a criminal offence involving a computer as the object of the crime, or the tool used to commit a material component of the offence. This report provides a preliminary look into the issues, data sources, and feasibility of collecting police-reported cyber-crime statistics. Options for the development of ongoing data collection and the nature and extent of cyber-crime activity in Canada are explored through this study.
