Eastfield College Criminal Justice Training Center announces
a new course in Cyber Crime -
[Computer Crimes] 
The ways in which criminals commit crimes are changing. Universal digital accessibility
opens up new opportunities for the unscrupulous. Millions of dollars are lost
to computer-savvy criminals. Worse, computers and networks can be used to harass
victims or set them up for violent attacks, and even to coordinate and carry
out terrorist activities that threaten us all.
The Criminal Justice Center and the CE Computer Center have collaborated on
a new class offering for law enforcement specialist/investigators. This class
will provide the students with the ability to investigate computer crimes or
incidents related to computer misuse, fraud, hacking, etc.
