Law for Digital Spaces and Information Systems

By John Bandler

This book is coming January 7, 2025 in time for the Spring 2025 semester.

I am working on this book now!

Cyberlaw is the law for cyber: how the law is applied to the digital domain.

"Cyber" is a buzzword and has been prefixed upon dozens of other words. Cyber basically  means things pertaining to computers, networks, the internet, and data.

Cyber is all around us, and law is all around us, so why not learn something about cyberlaw. Colleges, universities, and law schools want to teach about cyberlaw, some need to learn it, some want to.

Once upon a time I was a prosecutor investigating and litigating cybercrime cases. Then I went into private practice, working more on cybercrime investigation, plus lots of cybersecurity and privacy. I was asked to teach and build and improve various courses on cybersecurity, cybercrime, cyberlaw, and privacy. I practiced and taught and built and improved lots of material. I wrote books on related topics. Now it becomes time to put it all in a book.
