Summary

Jordy Mullers will discuss how criminal procedural law regulates the investigation of cybercrime by law enforcement officials. Mullers will argue that the rules sometimes  hinder law enforcement as a result of the rapid development of information and communication technology which has not been taken into consideration by legislators. Mullers will also argue that, from an international perspective, the cross-border unilateral application of digital investigation methods may violate territorial sovereignty of  states. Finally, Mullers will analyse the new law that allows for hacking as an investigation method.
