Violation of Authors' Rights Using Cyberspace Abstract This diploma thesis describes violation of authors' rights in cyberspace, especially the most common ways of committing this crime. The thesis is divided into five parts. The first chapter contains a general introduction to the topic, it defines the basic concepts (such as computer and related terms of hardware and software, internet, cyberspace and cybercrime), which serve as a basis for other parts of the work. The second chapter deals with copyright as such. It explains the concept of copyright work and describes the individual rights of the author. Given the nature of this criminal activity, it is not possible to limit the interpretation to the criminal law regulation. The second chapter thus indicates what rights of the author are affected, which works are subject to copyright infringement, which works are excluded from copyright protection and, finally, what are the limitations and exceptions to copyright. The third part is followed by a brief overview of the legislation that can be applied to the area of copyright (or generally to cybercrime). This includes national (Czech), European and international legislation, as it is an issue that in many cases crosses national borders. The fourth part of the thesis is a crucial part, because it deals with...

Fousek, Jan ; Gřivna, Tomáš (advisor) ; Bohuslav, Lukáš (referee)
Criminological and criminal law aspects of the ransomware spread Abstract This diploma thesis examines different aspects of criminology and criminal law with the issue of the malware spread in the form of ransomware. This text is divided into two main parts. First, the theoretical part consists of the chapters about cybercrime, malware and criminological and criminal law aspects of ransomware spread. It uses the substantive law and also procedural law perspective. All chapters are divided into subchapters dealing with the questions of offenders and victims, criminal law qualification of the ransomware phenomena and with related concepts used for the broader understanding of this kind of cybercrime. Second, the analytical part follows. This thesis combines different criminological research methods and tries to verify the main hypothesis regarding the increase in the number of ransomware attacks in the Czech Republic. The hypothesis is as follows: "The number of ransomware attacks registered by the Police of the Czech Republic has been increasing since 2016". This hypothesis cannot be accepted due to missing relevant data from the Police of the Czech Republic and other institutions. It can be said that for the period 2016-2018, there was 3 registered ransomware attacks per 100,000 inhabitants of the Czech...
