Digital data is increasing exponentially and affects both private and business life across the board. Personal data is now an asset; it constitutes intangible patrimony of individuals and businesses; privacy regulations and the application of GDPR 2016/679 reinforce this concept.However, data is increasingly subject to duplication, exfiltration, modification, and counterfeiting for the pursuit of illicit purposes through the use of computer science techniques and methodologies related to digital crime, the so-called “Cyber Crime” or, if we want to use an Italian term, “computer crimes.” Data must be preserved securely so that it can be recognized over time, objectively guaranteeing its reliability and authorship.

 

The main computer crimes committed today are:

• IDENTITY THEFT;
• VIOLATIONS OF EMAIL ACCOUNTS AND/OR SOCIAL PROFILES;
• UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO COMPUTER SYSTEMS;
• SPYWARE AND REMOTE CONTROL OF PHONES-PCs;
• FRAUD ON E-COMMERCE PLATFORMS;
• FRAUD THROUGH CREDITS TO FALSE IBAN NUMBERS PROVIDED THROUGH FORWARDING OF EMAILS APPARENTLY FROM CLIENT COMPANIES (THE SO-CALLED “PHISHING” PHENOMENON);
• FRAUD THROUGH SENDING SMS MESSAGES AIMED AT OBTAINING TOP-UPS, TRANSFERS, MONEY EXFILTRATION FROM BANK ACCOUNTS;
• VIRUS MALWARE – RANSOMWARE EXTORTION AND PAYMENT.

The online reputation of entrepreneurs and companies is increasingly at risk and threatened; Cyber Security techniques can guarantee the protection and immutability of our personal image and that of the corporate brand. Digital rights will be recognized through the scientific methodologies of computer forensics “Digital Forensics,” guaranteeing individuals and companies certain evidentiary elements in the legal field under Law 48/2008
