Law Enforcement Security Research Articles

Urgensi Penyatuan Lembaga Penegak Hukum di Laut Indonesia

In its efforts to enforce law at sea, Indonesia has 13 law enforcement agencies at sea. Six of these institutions have maritime patrol task forces. The number of law enforcement agencies in Indonesian seas is considered negative by several parties because of the potential for the authority of each agency to overlap. This research aims to find out what the condition of maritime law enforcement agencies in Indonesia is and what are the considerations for unifying maritime law enforcement agencies in Indonesia. This research is normative research related to maritime law enforcement agencies in Indonesia. There are at least 13 law enforcement agencies in Indonesian seas. The unification of maritime law enforcement agencies in Indonesia is necessary because unclear roles and authority, as well as a lack of coordination between agencies, have resulted in ineffectiveness in law enforcement and maritime security management. Indonesia needs unification of authority to strengthen all security, safety and maritime law enforcement functions in Indonesia

Law Awareness and Abidance and Radicalism Prevention Among Hong Kong Youth

AbstractSocial influence through awareness of law abidance and enforcement is uncertain in preventing youth radicalism. Accordingly, the effects of the social norm for law abidance and deterrence on radicalism are unclear or debatable. To clarify these effects, this study randomly surveyed 883 Chinese youth in Hong Kong, where the national security law has recently launched to tackle radicalism. Results show the significant inverse effects of awareness of national security law enforcement, awareness of support for law abidance, and agreement on law abidance on radicalism. Nevertheless, the effect of awareness of the enforcement slightly weakened with education, the agreement, or awareness of the support. This weakening suggests situational deterrence. These results imply the preventability of youth radicalism by law, including its awareness, abidance, and enforcement.

Assessing Challenges in Police and Private Security Partnership in Nairobi County, Kenya

In Nairobi County, Kenya, maintaining public safety needed coordination between private security firms and law enforcement. The primary goal of this study was to properly examine the obstacles they encountered. The study's purpose was to define the nature of collaboration within the historical framework of shared responsibilities, with an emphasis on identifying and comprehending the barriers to constructive cooperation.
 Our research took a complete approach, combining quantitative and qualitative methodologies inspired by the differential link notion and the theoretical foundations of systems theory. Nairobi was chosen as the primary data collection hub since it is home to many state and private security service providers.
 The results revealed a statistically significant link (r = 0.682; p 0.05) between the police force and private security firms, emphasizing the importance of their collaborative efforts to ensure public safety in Nairobi County. Accountability issues, insufficient information exchange, and a lack of a regulatory framework were discovered to be complicated (R2 = 0.713). Surprisingly, insufficient manpower, a lack of resources, and a centralized command system were the key causes of these failures.
 This study considerably contributed to the body of knowledge by filling a significant data vacuum regarding police-private security collaborations in Kenya. It also acted as a springboard for further research, supporting a more in-depth examination of Kenya's entire population preservation policy.
 The information acquired from this investigation was critical for politicians, law enforcement, and private security interests. The detailed examination and analysis of these limitations provided the basis for proposing targeted solutions that may improve collaboration, make the best use of available resources, and improve public safety throughout Nairobi County. This summary, which contained the methodology, important findings, and study impact, communicated the core goal of our investigation concisely and clearly.

Life Insurance Protection for High-Risk Occupations for State Civil Apparatus

The government has an obligation to provide Work Accident Insurance (JKK) and Death Insurance (JKM) protection to the State Civil Apparatus (ASN). This aims to improve the welfare of ASN, in addition to providing life insurance protection for high-risk jobs for ASN. The research method used is normative juridical, which is to study and examine legal principles, especially positive legal principles derived from existing literature materials from laws and regulations. The results showed that the excellent services provided by the police to the community include security maintenance, protection, protection, and law enforcement, in accordance with Article 13 of Law Number 2 of 2002 concerning the Indonesian National Police. Police work in Indonesia carries risks and workloads that can cause stress, with stressors including excessive workload, time pressure, poor quality executives, unfavourable political climate, inadequate authority, prolonged conflict, differences in task values between leaders and subordinates, and unusual organisational changes. In addition, the results of the study state that PT ASABRI (Persero) is a State-Owned Enterprise responsible for managing social insurance programs for TNI Soldiers, members of the National Police, and State Civil Apparatus Employees (ASN) within the Ministry of Defence and the National Police, in accordance with Government Regulation Number 102 of 2015 concerning Social Insurance for Soldiers of the Indonesian National Army, Members of the Indonesian National Police, and State Civil Apparatus Employees within the Ministry of Defence and the National Police of the Republic of Indonesia.

The effectiveness of sanctions on disclosure regulation: Australian evidence

AbstractWe investigate the deterrent effects of securities law enforcement sanctions with different levels of severity. Our setting is Australia's Continuous Disclosure Regulation, which features a range of sanctions from light through to more punitive. We find that after civil and administrative sanctions are imposed on a firm, market liquidity of industry‐peer firms significantly improves relative to non‐industry‐peers. Our results are robust to alternative measures, tests and models. The findings suggest that less costly and lighter sanctions are useful enforcement tools, providing important policy implications for securities regulators on the selection of sanctions to enforce disclosure regulation.

PREVENTING POTENTIAL ROBBERY CRIMES USING DEEP LEARNING ALGORITHM OF DATA PROCESSING

Recently, deep learning technologies, namely Neural Networks [1], are attracting more and more attention from businesses and the scientific community, as they help optimize processes and find real solutions to problems much more efficiently and economically than many other approaches. In particular, Neural Networks are well suited for situations when you need to detect objects or look for similar patterns in videos and images, making them relevant in the field of information and measurement technologies in mechatronics and robotics. With the increasing number of robbed apartments and houses every year, addressing this issue has become one of the highest priorities in today's society. By leveraging deep learning techniques, such as Neural Networks, in mechatronics and robotics, innovative solutions can be developed to enhance security systems, enabling more effective detection and prevention of apartment crimes. To evaluate the performance of our trained network, we conducted extensive experiments on a separate test dataset that was distinct from the training data. We meticulously labeled this dataset to obtain accurate ground truth annotations for comparison. By measuring precision scores, we determined the effectiveness of our model in detecting potential crimes. Our experiments yielded an accuracy rate of 97% in the detection of potential crimes. This achievement demonstrates the capability of YOLO and the effectiveness of our trained network in accurately identifying criminal activities. The high accuracy rate indicates that our system can effectively assist in property protection efforts, providing a valuable tool for security personnel and law enforcement agencies.

The Legality of Devious Cyber Practices: Readiness of Indonesia's Cyber Laws

The ever-expanding Indonesian cyberspace has ushered in significant economic growth to the country’s online business and e-commerce. This is due to the country’s rising internet penetration rate of 73% of its total population, with about 204 million people connected to the internet. This high connectivity has brought about several positive socio-economic opportunities but with other thorny issues like cybercrime, misinformation, cyber-induced intolerance, disinformation, trolling and cyber warfare. Despite the Indonesian government’s intervention with measures to regulate cyber activities, some devious cyber practices undefined in legal literature continue to be practiced, even passed as legitimate, sometimes leading to negative consequences. These practices are often conducted as organized operations that target populations to create mistrust and polarize the targeted population. Some are crafted as cyber warfare declared by entities within a country or from a foreign country targeting another’s populace, which poses a threat to social order. This paper explores these devious cyber practices and their strategies and mitigation possibilities. A sociological research approach coupled with the use of law enforcement theory was applied to study and analyze Indonesia’s cyber security law enforcement policies, the Internet and Electronic Transaction (ITE) Law, the Criminal Prosecution Act, the Constitutional law, civil society actors and private sector actors on cyber security. Indonesian law and international law, coupled with available technology, were reviewed for readiness to address threats posed by these devious cyber issues to social order. Measures taken by the Indonesian government are in readiness to combat these cyberspace issues in its jurisdiction but also present more questions on the proposals for reviews to the legislation and introduction of content monitoring systems, which risk being inappropriately deployed in censorships or suppression of legitimate freedom of expression.

On the Prevention and Control of Public Security and the Modernization Construction of Police Organizational form in the Pearl River Delta

With the deepening development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, the water security situation is becoming increasingly tense and causing frequent illegal and criminal incidents on the water, which has brought great harm to the economy and people's lives in the Bay Area. On the surface of the public security analysis, the public security organs to the importance of the water police is the direct reason of the deterioration of the water security situation. The deep factors include the existing problems in the form of police organization form in the Pearl River Delta, the lack of police talents in foreign-related waters, the formation of mass prevention and mass governance network by unrelated people, the urgent need of water-related laws, and the fuzzy police organization form in water waters. The prevention and control of public security in waters should start from strengthening the legal standardization and unity construction of water area public security law enforcement, developing the academic education of water area police officers, cultivating professional water area police talents and strengthening the joint prevention and cooperation mechanism of public security in the Pearl River Delta region.

A Review of Hash Function Types and their Applications

In the recent decade, global community has been one of the world's most prominent targets of terrorist strikes. There is still study being done and improved efficiency procedures needed in this sector, however the security forces and law enforcement agencies are creating and launching high security weaponry to secure their territories. There is a huge necessity to include the greater level of protection into military vehicles in the wake of several terrorist attacks and sniffing of security officers. Terrorists rely heavily on infiltration while avoiding detection by security measures because of the holes in these hypothetical situations. This paper presents the central methods of hash functions, cryptography and dynamic encryption that may be utilised by the military personnel to increase the safety, privacy, and resistance to sniffing of their communications with one another. This article details the many methods and algorithms that may be included into laser guided defensive weapons and vehicles to provide safe communication across the system.

Cross‐border regulatory enforcement and corporate voluntary disclosure

AbstractIn this study, we find that foreign firms cross‐listed in the US issue significantly more and better‐quality management earnings forecasts after their home countries sign the Multilateral Memorandum of Understanding Concerning Consultation and Cooperation and the Exchange of Information (MMoU), a nonbinding arrangement established by the International Organization of Securities Commissions to enhance the cross‐border enforcement of securities laws. Specifically, we find that after the MMoU, relative to their domestic counterparts in the US, foreign firms cross‐listed in the US are not only more likely to issue management earnings forecasts but also issue them more frequently. They also tend to issue better‐quality earnings forecasts, as measured by lower surprise, higher precision, greater timeliness, more disaggregation, lower optimism and fewer errors. We find that the observed effects of the MMoU signing are stronger for cross‐listed firms from countries with weaker institutional environments, resulting in greater enforcement concerns after the MMoU, and for firms with less foreign institutional ownership before the MMoU. Collectively, our findings support the conjecture that after a US‐listed foreign firm's home country enters the MMoU, the firm has more incentives to engage in voluntary disclosure due to greater concerns about regulatory enforcement and increased information demand from investors.

Maritime law enforcement: Indonesia's experience against illegal fishing

Maritime law enforcement is very important duty for a coastal state as failure to properly enforce maritime security law can result in undermining the sovereignty, security, and safety of a coastal state. The high number of maritime crimes occurring in Indonesian waters shows that this country is still faced with the enforcement of maritime security laws in dealing with illegal fishing. This paper examines the international and national laws relevant to maritime security and analyses the institutions arrangement of maritime security in Indonesia. To analyze the issues and countermeasures of illegal fishing, this research uses the case study method. This case study uses data on illegal, Unreported and Unregulated (IUU) fishing that occurred in Indonesian waters in 2015–2020. Finally, the recommendations for creating an omnibus law and establishing a new maritime security agency to improve the performance of maritime security law enforcement in Indonesia are proposed.

A Review on Cyber Security

Virtual simulation experiment teaching is an important content of higher education information construction and experimental teaching demonstration centre construction, and is the product of the deep integration of discipline and information technology. At present, traditional crimes in China are gradually shifting to the Internet, and cybercrimes are frequently and frequently occurring, seriously endangering national security, social order and people's interests. The forging of a team of high-quality professionals in network security and law enforcement is the inevitable path to effectively crack down on network crimes and realise the comprehensive governance of network crimes, and also provides a new examination question for the teaching of network security law enforcement. In view of the network security law enforcement routine practice teaching cannot cover all types of the experiment, especially some reach or irreversible operations (such as electronic data on-site inspection, etc.), and need high cost, large comprehensive experiments training (such as a variety of types involved network crimes probing experiment, etc.), virtual simulation experiment teaching has become an important method in the teaching of network security law enforcement Therefore, combining with the characteristics of network security law enforcement major, exploring the establishment of virtual simulation experimental teaching platform for network security law enforcement plays a crucial role in the teaching of network security law enforcement experiment and practical training

Cross-border enforcement of securities laws and dividend payouts

Following the September 11, 2001 attacks, numerous countries signed a special nonbinding arrangement to enhance cross-border enforcement of securities laws. This agreement is the Multilateral Memorandum of Understanding Concerning Consultation and Cooperation and the Exchange of Information (MMoU). This study examines whether and how a country's MMoU entry affects firms' dividend payout policies. Relative to domestic US firms, foreign firms cross-listed in the US report a significant increase in dividend payouts after their home country entered the MMoU. Furthermore, the effect of MMoU on corporate dividend payouts is pronounced for (1) firms with high agency costs, (2) countries with low external governance quality, and (3) countries with poor disclosure environments. Furthermore, we find that MMoU significantly changes the corporate governance structure. Our findings collectively corroborate the prediction of the dividend outcome model and are consistent with the notion that strengthening cross-border regulatory enforcement of foreign firms improves protection for outside shareholders and increases dividend payouts.

THE ROLE OF COMMUNITY POLICING IN CRIME PREVENTION AND MANAGEMENT EFFORT (STUDY AT GORONTALO RESORT POLICE)

The National Police of the Republic of Indonesia as one of the institutions that has the task of maintaining stability and realizing internal security includes maintaining security and order and law enforcement in the community. In the effort to prevent and overcome crime, community policing carried out by Bhayangkara Pembina Community Security and Order or abbreviated as Bhabinkamtibmas has a very important role. The legal basis for implementing Community Policing is the National Police Chief Regulation Number 3 of 2015 concerning Community Policing. The main task of bhabinkamtibmas is to develop community policing in the village, so bhabinkamtibmas is placed in the village or sub-district in order to reduce the crime rate in the area or village by realizing its main tasks and functions. However, in practice, the role of community policing has not been maximally implemented. This is because there are factors that hinder it, for example the limited number of personnel that is not proportional to the size of an area, especially in the jurisdiction of the Gorontalo Police and there are still many members of Bhabinkamtibmas who have not received police education in the field of Binmas and Intelkam. The method used in this paper is using empirical research methods, legal research based on the facts obtained in the field. The role of Community Policing carried out by Bhabinkamtibmas in crime prevention and control is very important because with the role they carry out they can help solve problems faced by the community.

Crawling and Mining the Dark Web: A Survey on Existing and New Approaches

The last two decades have seen a marked increase in the illegal activities on the Dark Web. Prompt evolvement and use of sophisticated protocols make it difficult for security agencies to identify and investigate these activities by conventional methods. Moreover, tracing criminals and terrorists poses a great challenge keeping in mind that cybercrimes are no less serious than real life crimes. At the same time, computer security societies and law enforcement pay a great deal of attention on detecting and monitoring illegal sites on the Dark Web. Retrieval of relevant information is not an easy task because of vastness and ever-changing nature of the Dark Web; as a result, web crawlers play a vital role in achieving this task. Thereafter, data mining techniques are applied to extract useful patterns that would help security agencies to limit and get rid of cybercrimes. The aim of this paper is to present a survey for those researchers who are interested in this topic. We started by discussing the internet layers and the properties of the Deep Web, followed by explaining the technical characters of The Onion Routing (TOR) network, and finally describing the approaches of accessing, extracting and processing Dark Web data. Understanding the Dark Web, its properties and its threats is vital for internet servers; we do hope this paper be of help in that goal.

Climate risk: enforcement of corporate and securities law in common law Asia

ABSTRACT The extensive literature on strategic climate litigation focuses mainly on lawsuits brought against private litigants or the state based on breaches of environmental law, tort law, human rights law or public law. Relatively far less has been written about corporate and securities litigation against companies or their directors, let alone in relation to Asia. This article fills these gaps. It critically examines whether and how the enforcement of corporate law and securities law can be used as a tool to address climate-related risks in three leading common law jurisdictions in Asia – India, Singapore, and Hong Kong. The central argument of this article is that because of the limitations of private and public enforcement of corporate law, public enforcement of securities law and listing rules is a more effective mechanism in addressing climate risks in the three jurisdictions.
