What is Computer Surveillance?
What will be an ideal response?
Computer surveillance is another common investigative target for criminal investigators. It involves the monitoring of data and traffic on the Internet. In the United States, for example, under the Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act, all phone calls and broadband Internet traffic (e-mail, Web traffic, instant messaging, and so on) are required to be available for unrestricted real-time monitoring by law enforcement agencies on the federal level.
So, automated Internet surveillance computers go through the vast amount of Internet traffic and report to human investigators traffic considered interesting due to (1) the use of certain “trigger” words or phrases, (2) visits to certain types of websites, or (3) communication via e-mail or chat with suspicious individuals or groups.
