Recently completed

Topics

Under congressional mandate, the National Academies’ Committee on National Statistics (CNSTAT), Computer Science and Telecommunications Board (CTSB), and Committee on Law and Justice (CLAJ) will conduct a consensus panel study to review current measurement and reporting of cybercrime, developing a taxonomy that can be used to measure cyber-enabled and cyber-dependent crimes experienced by individuals and businesses. This study will build on the Modernizing Crime Statistics consensus study (National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, 2016, 2018) and a study by the U.S. Government Accountability Office (2023), and is sponsored by the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
