Part II outlines the the risks to computer systems and personnel, operational, physical, and communications measures that can be taken to prevent computer crimes. Part III discusses how to plan for, investigate, and prosecute computer crimes, ranging from the supplies needed for criminal investigation, to the detection and audit tools used in investigation, to the presentation of evidence to a jury.
Part IV of the book contains a compendium of the computer-related U.S. federal statutes and all of the statutes of the individual states, as well as representative international laws. Part V contains a resource summary, detailed papers on computer crime, and a sample search warrant for a computer crime.

Customer Reviews & Comments
This is an example of a gift of white space that is used to sell computer literature and software. But also there's tricks and techniques from the FBI in this white space book. Maybe you can go out and bust a computer user or want too. This book will show you how. It took me about five months to read. But then again it could be a faster read if your focused only on one book. Very complete but needs more Canadian law references.
