| dc.description.abstract | Technological developments have had a major impact on the intensive use of electronic equipment, networked or connected to the internet, factors that have boosted the emergence and growth of cybercrime. Measures to mitigate and combat the phenomenon, taking into account its complexity and specificity, must involve all public entities with responsibility in the sector, in a global effort to promote digital literacy in the areas of cybersecurity and computer crime prevention. These comprehensive actions should use digital technologies based on artificial intelligence (AI), such as virtual assistants, whose characteristics allow the massification of information transmission, while enhancing the digital inclusion of users. Government entities are engaged in adopting technologies based on chatbots, with their presence in several areas of public administration. Despite the evolution, these resources have not yet been made available by the entities responsible for mitigating computer crime. On the other hand, although there are government programs aimed at increasing the digital skills of citizens, namely regarding the protection of devices, digital content or personal data, they are not designed for the specificities of cybercrime. In this context, a system based on chatbots, implemented in a digital governance context, by law enforcement agencies, with resources shared with other government entities can contribute to the prevention of cybercrime. | eng |
