Nijerya'da Siber Suç Tehdidiyle Mücadele: Mevcut Yasaların ve Politikaların İncelenmesi
Özet
Siber suç, son yıllarda önemli bir küresel kriminolojik sorun haline geldi. Uluslararası İnternet dolandırıcılığının merkez üslerinden biri olarak kabul edilen Nijerya, bir siber suç yatağı olarak ün kazanıyor. Teknolojik yeniliklerde devam eden ilerleme ve Nijerya'da terörizmin büyümesiyle birlikte, siber saldırılar da devam eden bir tehdittir. Siber suç tehdidiyle mücadele etme çabaları çoğunlukla etkisiz kalmıştır. Nijerya hükümeti, siber suçların ekonomik ve sosyal büyümeye yönelik oluşturduğu tehlikenin üstesinden gelmek için önlemler almış olsa da, geçmişte uyguladığı parça parça yaklaşım somut sonuçlar vermedi. Bu yazıda, uluslararası işbirliği de dahil olmak üzere kapsamlı ve bütüncül bir yaklaşım olmadan siber suçla Nijerya hükümetinin tek başına mücadele edemeyeceğini savunuyoruz. Nijerya hükümeti tarafından siber suçları engellemek için kullanılan çeşitli stratejileri ve siber suçluluğun neden azalmayı reddeden kötü huylu bir tümör olduğunu inceledik. Ayrıca bazı politika önlemlerini ve tavsiyelerini de ana hatlarıyla belirtiyoruz.
