As faculty members teach and conduct research within their institutions, they should be secure in the knowledge that the intellectual property they create is free from concern of loss of confidentiality, and that the computer systems entrusted to them to perform this work will not be seized and scrutinized without formal process and legal procedure. However, unless the institution and its constituent groups have co-developed relevant, salient and legally compliant policy, the search and seizure of computer-based information, could turn into a political nightmare. This paper examines the laws relevant to computer search and seizure as they apply in the academe.
In the first quarter of 2016, an epic court battle between the Apple and the FBI ensued over the iPhone 5C of San Bernardino gunman Syed Rizwan Farook. The FBI ordered Apple to disable a feature that locks out investigators out after 10 unsuccessful attempts to input the correct password. Services are key to Apple’s business model such as keeping private user data on their iCloud platform. The robustness of its encryption made it nearly impossible on the device. The request by the FBI to force Apple to create a backdoor in their robust operating system was outright denied by the tech giant. Apple’s main argument being that, what if the know of creating the backdoor falls in the wrong hands. This paper aims to highlight extent to which user data remains private and in what situations it is not. The methodology is going to be mainly article analysis and journals on privacy. This study aims to relate to the recent bills introduced in Zimbabwe that include the Cybercrime and Data Protection Bill respectively. The outcome of the implications of these on the growing use data related services, implication on cybercrime in the country and the issue of privacy of data an alignment with other pieces of legislature.
This case study describes FBI Major Case 216, which ultimately became a collaborative investigation between the FBI and site security professionals into a series of cyberattacks that took place from August 2003 to March 2005. Incident response specialists at the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA), located at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC), played a significant and crucial role in this investigation. The attacks encompassed over a thousand sites, including high-security military sites and federal research laboratories, university sites, private sector sites, and machines owned by individuals, both in the U.S. and in Europe. In one case, a large company (Cisco) reported the theft of source code, which was later published online. The case drew much concerned interest from the FBI and the Departments of Energy and Defense particularly because of the initial, very real possibility that the attacks were sponsored by a foreign state. However, most...

Two meters away on her desk sits Day's other computer—a gray-and-chrome minitower emblazoned with a red sticker proclaiming that its hard drive is classified SECRET.“This,” she says protectively,“holds my e-mail.” Day readily talks about the ThinkPad, describing how she got it as part of a big purchase by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) a few years ago and explaining that it's now somewhat out-of-date. And she happily shows off a collectible action figure—still in its display box—a colleague brought back from Belgium.
The commission of Otherwise Illegal Activities (OIA) by FBI confidential informants (CIs) is an issue of both ethical and legal concern. This paper presents updated data on Tier 1 and Tier 2 OIAs committed by FBI CIs for 2019 and 2020, indicating a slight downturn since published reports from 2011. The utilitarian necessity of CIs for law enforcement to effectively conduct investigations is counterbalanced by the social damage inflicted by OIAs.
