이 책은 사이버범죄란 무엇이고, 어떤 특징이 있는지부터 시작하여 사이버범죄를 유형별로 샅샅이 분해하여 살펴본다. 그리고 미국, 영국, 호주, 캐나다 등 다른 주요 선진국에서는 이러한 각 범죄에 대응하기 위해 어떤 법률 체계를 갖추고 있고, 관련 법률을 적용할 때 쟁점이 된 부분들은 무엇인지 살펴본다. 따라서 이 책은 기술적 지식이 부족하더라도 사이버 범죄에 대해 심도있게 이해하고 싶은 독자들, 사이버범죄 관련 법률의 발전방향을 연구하는 독자들이 참고하는 데 유용하리라고 생각된다. 이에 사이버범죄 관련 업무를 담당하고 있는 경찰대학 국제사이버범죄연구센터 연구진 세 명이 용기를 내어 어설프게나마 번역본을 한국 독자들에게 소개하고자 하였다. 이 책이 국내 사이버범죄 분야의 연구 발전에 기여할 수 있기를 바란다.
