Community Policing on the Internet
- Abstract
- Community policing has been applied to the physical world with good success. These programs establish a community partnership that attempts to solve the problems that lead to crime, and work to change these factors to mitigate the threat of crime. One of the main cruxes of community policing is crime prevention. This paper applies the principles of community policing and crime prevention to the Internet and details establishing relationships between law enforcement and potential victims, their individual roles and responsibilities, and some of the problems the relationship may alleviate such as fears a victim may have concerning the reporting of cybercrime.
