Cybercrime

In this chapter, which is the last chapter in the book, cybercrimes along with their types, such as those targeting persons, those against property, or those against the government are discussed from the perspective of translation between unrelated languages, such as Arabic and English. Other types of cybercrimes, such as ‘cyberbullying’, ‘cyber terrorism’, ‘hacking’, ‘cyberextortion’, ‘cryptojacking’, ‘cyberespionage’, and so on are also discussed in this chapter from the same perspective. Like other chapters in the practical part, this chapter starts with a ‘warming up section’ that provides the reader with a list of useful links that lead them to certain videos selected by the author carefully to help them understand the concepts under discussion. After that, a bilingual text (translated either from or into English) is used to help students be familiar with the technical terms used in this area in both languages followed by a variety of tasks, such as ‘listen to translate’, ‘evaluate the translated text’ by focusing on certain issues, such as accuracy and acceptability, ‘evaluate the machine translation’, ‘complete the translation’, ‘translate with some notes’, etc.
