Public Information Infrastructures and Identity Fraud
J.H.A.M. Grijpink · Information technology and law series/Information technology & law series · 2011
During the past 4 years, more than twenty Dutch large-scale chain cooperation cases have been studied in the chain research program at the Institute of Information and Computer Sciences of Utrecht University, using the guidelines and the chain analysis tools provided by the doctrine of chain-computerization. This chain research program has led to some valuable insights and breaking views with regard to both public information-infrastructures and identity fraud. The chain perspective focuses on the interplay of forces that determine the effectiveness of large-scale information exchange; the perspective of identity fraud focuses on the fact that the misuse of somebody else's identity leaves behind many traces that, however, point towards the victim instead of towards the culprit.
