DIAZ SAMPER, Guillermo Augusto José; MOLINA GARZON, Alba Luz y SERRADOR OSORIO, Luis Enrique. Approaching the cybercriminal from a perspective of social control. Rev. Crim. [online]. 2023, vol.65, n.3, pp.81-95. Epub 09-Mar-2024. ISSN 1794-3108. https://doi.org/10.47741/17943108.508.
This article provides an approach to cybercriminals by identifying the common characteristics in the personality of those who commit crimes in this scenario. In order to carry out the research, a sample of nineteen experts from the Criminal Investigation Directorate and INTERPOL were interviewed in depth. The data obtained were treated based on a hermeneutic design with emphasis on grounded theory, by means of three phases elaborated in matrix analysis of open, selective and theoretical coding; from which some of the tactics of cybercriminals deployed in cyberspace through information and communication technologies are established; their description based on the big five model and the identification of several of their characteristics such as lack of empathy, scruples, the inability to control emotions, confidence and the ability to innovate their modus operandi (Sánchez y Robles, 2013). Finally, theories of social control have studied cybercrime and the acts of cybercriminals in a formal way that seeks to find strategies to control the State, according to González (2010), or informally, seeking the motives that lead to committing crimes, as stated by López (2015), on the basis of which, at the end, some recommendations are presented.
