Despite this rising threat, it is currently only possible to estimate the extent of the harm caused by cybercrime, as there is no model that allows for a holistic measurement of both material and non-material harms \u2013 neither for the area of cybercrime in a narrow sense (cyber-dependent) nor for that in a broad sense (cyber-enabled).<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-left\">Aim<\/h3>\n\n<p>The goal of the program SCK is to develop a model, incl. metrics and methodologies, for the systematic, reproducible and verifiable recording of short-, medium-, and long-term material and immaterial harm caused by cybercrime as well as cascading effects. The model is intended to be robust to change, so that future forms of cybercrime can also be assessed at an early stage. This provides an innovative tool for analyzing and assessing such crimes on society, the economy, and the state.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-left\">Disruptive Risk Research<\/h3>\n\n<p>The program is highly risky due to the lack of survey instruments and data. The risk is that only partial aspects may continue to be recorded, and harm may not be mapped holistically, which would result in only incremental improvements in the assessment of the security situation in Germany at best.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:0px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Background The increasing connectivity of society offers many advantages, but this also increases the risk of being affected by cybercrime.
