A Comprehensive Analytical Review on Cybercrime in West Africa
CoRR(2024)
摘要
Cybercrime is a growing concern in West Africa due to the increasing use of
technology and internet penetration in the region. Legal frameworks are
essential for guiding the control of cybercrime. However, the implementation
proves challenging for law enforcement agencies due to the absence of a
dedicated and effective regional institutional follow-up mechanism. This study
conducted a systematic literature review focusing on West Africa's prevalence
of cybercrime, governing policies, regulations, and methodologies for combating
cybercrime. West-Africa countries face significant cybercrime challenges,
exacerbated by inadequate resources and a dearth of security experts. This
study pinpoints potential cybercrime prevention strategies, such as leveraging
the Triage framework and broadening research to cover pivotal areas like cyber
aggression and cyberbullying. Our research findings highlight the urgency for
policymakers and law enforcement agencies to devise more efficient prevention
strategies and policies. Overall, this study provides invaluable insights into
the state of cybercrime in West Africa to guide the formulation of potent
prevention and intervention strategies.
