Course Description
The digital world is beautiful, but it's not always innocent. With every click, we leave a trace, and with every share, we open a window—and sometimes, those who shouldn't enter, enter. Understanding cybercrime is no longer a luxury; it's a creative skill that protects you, your projects, and your ideas from falling into the wrong hands.
In this course, we will dive into the world of digital crime together. Your journey will begin by learning about the meaning of cybercrime and how its forms have changed with the advancement of technology. Then, we will move on to discover how the world deals with it: from international agreements to local laws, especially Egyptian law.
We will talk about digital evidence, how it is collected, and when it becomes legal. And most importantly, how to build a critical perspective that helps you understand these issues.
At the end of the course, we will analyze a real-life cybercrime case and understand how it can be dealt with legally and technically—step by step, in an engaging narrative style.
Whether you are a lawyer, a legal researcher, a law student, or just someone who wants to stay safe in the digital space, this course is designed for you, and primarily, with you.
