It is a pleasure to announce the 5th Annual MSU Interdisciplinary Conference on Cybercrime will be held April 19th and 20th, 2018 at the Kellogg Hotel and Conference Center, Auditorium room, on the Michigan State University Campus in East Lansing (https://kelloggcenter.com/). This flagship event, sponsored in part by the MSU School of Criminal Justice, seeks to draw world class social and technical science researchers together and present their work in order to promote collaboration between the disciplines and identify new avenues of research to enrich both fields. In addition, the conference links both fields to industry and policy-makers to transform the landscape of cybersecurity, policy, and practice.
