• ASC100S Advanced Study Skills

  This module is a non-credit bearing module and does not have an assessment. This module will be very helpful in supporting the academic development of students. Attendance will be monitored and all students are expected to fully engage with this positive and informative module. The sessions are open to students from all Criminology programmes.

• ASCM28 Case Studies in Applied Criminal Justice and Criminology

  The module consists mainly of a series of case studies of recent research in crime and criminal justice, presented by the people who actually did the research. The focus is on how and why the researchers chose the particular methodologies and strategies used; how these choices were influenced by ethical concerns and the interests of research subjects; what constraints and pressures were created by resource limitations or the expectations and agendas of research funders (for example, the Home Office); and, where relevant, how `impact¿ was defined and conceptualised within the research.

• ASCM58 Cyber Security

  Across the developed and developing worlds, cyber security is a growing concern as interconnectivity grows and technologies develop. This is embodied by the growth of the Internet and platforms which rely on the Internet. This is an enabler for governments, businesses, financial transactions, and one-to-one and one-to-many communications. The resulting explosion in communications and connectivity is also enabling dis/mis and mal information to be seeded and grow to virality. Whether and how social media platforms and the Internet should be regulated and policed is a vexing question for national governments and societies. In tandem is the growth in cyber crime. This embraces everything from scams which target individuals to large scale corporate theft to the sharing of illegal materials. Large scale corporate theft can also involve national intelligence agencies which adds a layer of complexity to any national or international resolution. Of still greater concern is the capacity of states to engage in cyber espionage, hybrid warfare and cyber warfare.

• ASCM80 Digital Forensics and Digital Policing

  Digital Forensics (DF) is the process of identifying, acquiring, analysing and reporting on digital evidence (DE) used in a wide range of investigations. Digital Forensic Investigations (DFIs) have a variety of applications, being used in civil, administrative, and criminal proceedings in pursuit of DE. A typical DFI would involve the investigation of crimes such as hacking, digital espionage, counter-terrorism and possession of illegal imagery, etc. Digital Policing captures wide areas of modern policing and investigative tools, techniques, and procedures such as the use of CCTV footage and biometrics or requests to social media companies and technology providers for private data. Moreover, policing in the digital age involves regional and national databases. Each of these carry ethical and privacy implications alongside the growing use of encryption.

Kristan Stoddart was a board member of the Independent Digital Ethics in Policing Panel (IDEPP) - http://idepp.org/ - composed of senior figures from UK policing, UK intelligence agencies, the law, and civil society. IDEPP was an important hub for ethical issues arising from policing in the information age.

Kristan has given many invited talks over many years. In 2018 he was a keynote speaker at the Infrastructure Investors Forum Europe at Price Waterhouse Coopers in the City of London in January 2018 and at the Nordic Baltic Security Summit in March 2018. In November 2017 he was invited to the Cabinet Office to speak at the seminar ‘European security challenges in 2030’ and in February 2018 he submitted written evidence to the House of Lords International Relations Committee inquiry on ‘Foreign policy in changed world conditions’. In May-June 2018 he was a moderator and speaker at NATO’s premier cyber security conference, CyCon X in Tallinn.
