David S. Wall, PhD, FRSA, AcSS is Professor of Criminology at Durham University, UK where he conducts research and teaches in the fields of cybercrime, policing and intellectual property crime. Dr. Wall’s October 21, 2010 presentation was co-sponsored by the Institute for Information Infrastructure Protection (I3P) at Dartmouth College. He discussed how demands for better policing of cybercrimes cannot easily be met because Internet-related offenses mainly takes place within a globalized and transnational context, while crime tends to be nationally defined and policing locally delivered. He argued that the future of policing the internet does not solely revolve around increasing the role and capacity of the public police, rather, it involves the public police engaging with the various networks of security that currently constitute the self-policing of the internet.
