Prevention of Cyberstalking Prevention of Cyberstalking Aram Christopher Amu Prevention of Cyberstalking Prevention of Cyberstalking Introduction The increase in technological advances indicates that there is increased number of people who have access to the internet. This increases the number of people who may be affected by cyberstalking. Cyberstalking crime in the recent years has been on the increase in many countries. There are many studies that have been done on the topic of how to prevent the increased cases of cyberstalking. This study will, therefore, provide a literature review on how to prevent the increased cases of cyberstalking both in the USA and other countries in the world. Some of the factors that will be discussed in the literature review on the prevention of cyberstalking include education to internet users on the issue of cyberstalking crime, enforcement of legal policies on cyberstalking, enforcement of the practices, research on cyberstalking victimization, and provision of information to internet users on cyberstalking. Literature Review Many studies have been done on how providing education on cyberstalking issue will increase the awareness of the crime to internet users and lead to prevention. Provision of education to the general public will enable more people to devise preventive measures on cyberstalking crime. Notar et al, (2013) in their study on prevention of cyberstalking crime, indicated that schools and other education institutions have a responsibility in promoting the awareness of cyberstalking to members of the general public. This includes educating the public on the effects of cyberstalking and how to avoid cyberstalkers on the internet. Moreover, through education, there are governmental agencies that will join the fight against cyberstalking. Prevention of Cyberstalking These agencies will advocate for the increased awareness of the issue of cyberstalking to the general public through promotional campaigns (Baum et al, 2009). Educating the public on how to relate with people on the internet is also vital in the prevention of cyberstalking. The Internet should be educated on the many forms that cyberstalking may be present on the internet so as to avoid such actions whenever they occur. For example, receiving gifts, messages, and emails from unknown persons may be ignored by many people. Through educational programs, the ignorance of the members of the public may reduce and increase the reporting of such behaviors to the relevant authorities. This could be achieved by incorporating of the cyberstalking crime in the school curriculum so that children are able to learn about the effects and preventive measures at an early stage. Furthermore, it is necessary to keep personal information and contacts secure so as to prevent unauthorized viewing or entry. This can be achieved through educating the public on methods of ensuring personal and organizational information safety (Kamali, 2015). The television and radio stations may also play a vital role in educating the public on cyberstalking prevention. In addition, enforcement of laws concerning cyberstalking is necessary to reduce the number of cyberstalkers. Both the federal and state government has put in place laws to protect the public from cyberstalking crime. It is, therefore, important to ensure that the laws put in place are operational so as to reduce cyberstalking. Studies done by Hazelwood & Koon-Magnin (2013), found out that there are limited legislations that are put in place to control the issue of cyberstalking. This is because there is different definition of actions that constitutes cyberstalking crime. However, the majority of the states have either amended the law to include cyberstalking and cyber harassment in their statutes. This has encouraged more law enforcement officers to be able to protect citizens by engaging in the investigation on any aspect of Prevention of Cyberstalking cyberstalking on the internet. This may be done through officers engaging in an undercover mission to determine any form of cybercrime that may occur, more so involving the minors (Mitchell, Wolak & Finkelhor, 2005). Such information may act as evidence against any offender who engages in the cyberstalking crime. Moreover, it is necessary that individual person reports all forms of cyberstalking crimes to the relevant authorities as soon as they happen so that legal action may be taken to the offenders so as to prevent any future occurrence. It is also necessary that laws are put in place to regulate the relationship of different people on the internet. Increased social media platforms require that actions of people are regulated by specific laws so that cyberstalking and cyber harassment is reduced through the continuous review of privacy policies so that it covers all the aspects of cyberstalking. The government may also put in place regulations that require different social media to display code of ethics that contains information on how to reduce cyberstalking. Providing information about victim internet usage and cyberstalkers is vital in the prevention of cyberstalking crime. Such information may help the law enforcement officers in tracking the victims and offenders on the internet (Griffiths, 2010). Internet users can easily identify cyberstalkers if the information is provided online. This will facilitate managing the behaviors of cyberstalkers hence reducing their actions. A study done by Donegan (2012), shows that provision of the cyberstalkers information on the internet will facilitate the coordination between different stakeholders such as family members, schools, organizations, and agencies among others hence increasing awareness. Furthermore, setting up a department to investigate and deal with cyberstalking may reduce cyberstalking crime. The forensic investigation department will provide the relevant information on the rate of cyber harassment and cyberstalking crime. Moreover, it will enable the behavioral evidence analysis of the Prevention of Cyberstalking cyberstalking crime scene, offender, and the victim (Al Mutawa, 2016). It was also evident that behavioral evidence analysis that may be conducted by the forensic department will provide information on the motives of cyberstalkers hence preventing any future occurrence. Conclusion The study concludes that due to the increasing technological advances, there is need to prevent the increasing cyberstalking crime. To ensure effective prevention of cyberstalking crime there is a need for both the stakeholders such as schools, government agencies, and organizations to work together as a unified group towards the achievement of common goal. Moreover, the study concludes that effective prevention of cyberstalking does not only involve the identification and punishing of cyberstalkers but also determining the motives behind the offender’s behavior so that prevention of any future occurrence. Furthermore, cyberstalkers should also be taught about the social effects of their behaviors on internet users. In addition, it is evident from the study that creation of awareness through education to the public and law enforcement is among the major preventive strategies that can be used in the prevention of cyberstalking crime.
