This edited collection offers an authoritative and accessible resource for security practitioners, addressing the complexities of managing contemporary and emerging cybercrime and cyberterrorism (CC/CT) issues. For the first time, it serves as a trusted reference, enriched by insights from three major European Commission-funded projects. The book includes case studies, strategic responses, and contextual information that provide the theoretical foundation necessary for understanding and applying cyber law, policy, and practice. It emphasizes the collective responsibility of society—including law enforcement agencies, the private sector, and academia—in addressing CC/CT challenges. With contributions from leading experts across various fields, this volume adopts a multi-disciplinary approach that extends beyond typical guidance from law enforcement and policy documents. It situates CC/CT issues within a broader practical and operational context, blending practical experience with academic commentary. This ensures that security practitioners are better informed and equipped to fulfill their responsibilities in protecting citizens from cyber threats.

One of the most important aspects for a successful police operation is the ability for the police to obtain timely, reliable and actionable intelligence related to the investigation or incident at hand. Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) provides an invaluable avenue to access and collect such information in addition to traditional investigative techniques and information sources. This book offers an authoritative and accessible guide on how to conduct Open Source Intelligence investigations from data collection to analysis to the design and vetting of OSINT tools. In its pages the reader will find a comprehensive view into the newest methods for OSINT analytics and visualizations in combination with real-life case studies to showcase the application as well as the challenges of OSINT investigations across domains. Examples of OSINT range from information posted on social media as one of the most openly available means of accessing and gathering Open Source Intelligence to location data, OSINT obtained from the darkweb to combinations of OSINT with real-time analytical capabilities and closed sources. In addition it provides guidance on legal and ethical considerations making it relevant reading for practitioners as well as academics and students with a view to obtain thorough, first-hand knowledge from serving experts in the field.
