Cybercrimes in Social Networking
Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 04
Abstract
The ubiquity of social networking platforms in the digital age has facilitated unprecedented connectivity and communication, yet it has also given rise to a burgeoning challenge—cybercrimes within these virtual spaces. This study delves into the multifaceted landscape of cybercrimes in social networking, exploring their prevalence, types, and consequential impacts on individuals and society. Through a comprehensive analysis of survey data, interviews, and content reviews, we unveil the alarming frequency of cybercrimes, from online harassment to identity theft. The research not only examines the psychological toll on victims but also assesses the evolving tactics employed by cybercriminals. The findings underscore the imperative for collaborative efforts among individuals, platforms, and policymakers to fortify cybersecurity measures and ensure a safer digital environment for all.
