The changing face of cyber crime as a service: An Australian perspective
Abstract
Claims of unchecked sophisticated cyberattacks have raised important questions about the types of adversaries, the targets (victims), the changing nature of cybercrime, and the legal ramifications that lead to successful prosecutions. The ease of access to services, such as botnets that can be deployed on behalf of customers by third-party providers, has no doubt encouraged non-technical customers to engage in cyber warfare. As such, they could be legitimately prosecuted; such prosecutions are, however, rare, due to a range of limitations. This article examines the legal and practical issues arising from the evolution of Cybercrime as a Service from a technical to a business-driven model.
