the New York Department of Financial Services (DFS) has released an investigation report on Twitter. This report outlines the high profile attack that overtook popular celebrity accounts (including former U.S. president Barack Obama, celebrity and businesswoman Kim Kardashian West, Amazon mogul Jeff Bezos, and other notable celebrities) and led to the theft of US$ 118,000 in bitcoin.

DFS has called on the U.S. government to regulate social media platforms, such as Twitter and Facebook, on cybersecurity, along with antitrust and content moderation.

Prof. Sachin Tiwari, from Jawaharlal Nehru University, India, analyzes the meaning and nature of cybercrime legislation as well as the scope of policy formation in the global narrative of cybersecurity in his article, “Cyber Crime Regulation, Challenges, and Response,” sourced from the  Encyclopedia of Criminal Activities and the Deep Web (IGI Global).
