I am grateful to the many individuals whose assistance and contributions to this edited work facilitated its creation, value, and applicability. First, many thanks to the authors whose contributions compose the intellectual core of this work. As cybercrime and cybersecurity threats continue to evolve, collaborations between the social and technical sciences will become even more critical. It is my hope is that this work will provide guidance and insights for both fields to most effectively collaborate. Additionally, thanks to the publishing team at Routledge Press for their assistance and patience throughout the creation and submission of this manuscript. Finally, I would like to thank my wonderful wife and children for all of their support throughout this process.

Gail-Joon Ahn is Professor of Computer Science and Engineering, co-director of the Laboratory of Security Engineering for Future Computing, and director of Center for Cybersecurity and Digital Forensics at Arizona State University. His principal research and teaching interests are in information and systems security. His research foci include security analytics and big data driven security intelligence, vulnerability and risk management, access control and security architecture for distributed systems, identity models for computer security.

Adam M. Bossler is Associate Professor in the Department of Criminal Justice and Criminology at Georgia Southern University. He earned his doctorate in criminology and criminal justice from the University of MissouriSt. Louis. His research primarily focuses on examining the application of traditional criminological theories to cybercrime offending and victimization and how law enforcement has responded to cybercrime. He is the co-author of three books on cybercrime Cybercrime and Digital Forensics: An Introduction (2015); Policing Cybercrime and Cyberterror (2015); and Cybercrime in Progress: Theory and Prevention of Technology-Enabled Offenses (2016). He has recently completed three federal grants, including a BJA grant exploring innovative correctional programs, a BJA Smart Policing grant evaluating the implementation of technology in rural law enforcement agencies, and a collaborative NSF funded grant using real Internet usage data to examine computer deviance in a college sample.

Chen founded the UA Artificial Intelligence Lab in 1990 and has since received more than $40M in research funding from NSF, NIH, DHS, and many other agencies (over 90 grants, 40 from NSF). Recent funding ($8M) includes awards from NSFs Secure and Trustworthy Cyperspace (SaTC) program and its Data Infrastructure Building Blocks (DIBBs) program for his Hacker Web research and AZSecure Scholarship for Service Fellowship program. Chen received the IEEE Computer Society 2006 Technical Achievement Award, the 2008 INFORMS Design Science Award, the MIS Quarterly 2010 Best Paper Award, the IEEE 2011 Research Achievement and Leadership Award in Intelligence and Security Informatics, and the UA 2013 Technology Innovation Award. He is the author/editor of more than 40 books and conference proceedings, 30 book chapters, 280 SCI journal articles, and 180 refereed conference papers covering digital library, data/text/ web mining, business analytics, security informatics, and health informatics. He is also the founding chair of International Conferences of Asian Digital Libraries (ICADL) and IEEE International Conferences on Intelligence and Security Informatics (IEEE ISI), two premiere meetings in digital library and security informatics, respectively. Chen is also a successful entrepreneur. He is the founder of the Knowledge Computing Corporation (KCC), a university spin-off IT company and market leader in law enforcement and intelligence information sharing and data mining. In 2009, KCC merged with i2, the industry leader in intelligence analytics. The combined i2/KCC company was acquired by IBM in 2011 for $500M.
