Tutorial Overview
Cybercrime is any criminal activity that is committed using information and communications technology (ICT). It includes both cyber-dependent crimes, such as hacking, which are committed entirely through ICT, and cyber-enabled crimes, which are more traditional crimes, such as fraud, whose scale can be dramatically increased by the use of ICT.
