More on Parking and Regulations

The intensive course "Criminal Law and Digitalisation" constitutes the sixth module of the Executive Master of Laws (LL.M.) in Economic Criminal Law. The focus is on the criminal law challenges of digital transformation, particularly in the context of cybercrime, blockchain technology and artificial intelligence (AI).

Participants first receive a comprehensive overview of the relevant criminal provisions on cybercrime. A distinction is made between:

• Cybercrime in the narrow sense: attacks on data and IT systems using modern information technologies (e.g. hacking, ransomware or DDoS attacks)
• Cybercrime in the broader sense: use of IT to commit classical offences (e.g. phishing or child pornography)

The course then addresses cybersecurity, including preventive measures, technical protection mechanisms and the legal obligations in the areas of IT security and cyber resilience.

Another key focus is new digital technologies:

• Blockchain technology and its criminal law implications are explored with reference to the Liechtenstein Blockchain Act (TVTG). The emergence of the token economy is also explained in a practice-oriented manner.
• Artificial intelligence (AI) — in particular generative AI such as ChatGPT — is presented in its application in professional practice, including in the context of crime prevention. In addition to the legal framework, ethical and criminal law-relevant issues are discussed.

Course contents at a glance:

• Criminal law classification of cybercrime and cybersecurity
• Current developments in digital criminal law
• Blockchain, tokenisation and the Liechtenstein TVTG
• Artificial intelligence in the legal context: opportunities, risks and legal limits
• Interactive case studies and practice-oriented discussions

After successful completion, students are able to identify, legally classify and practically resolve criminal law relevant facts in digital contexts. They possess solid knowledge in technology-based economic criminal law and are prepared for competent management of digital risks in corporate and legal contexts.

Participants acquire the ability to recognise criminal law relevant facts in the digital context and to solve them in a practice-oriented manner. They are qualified to deal with the challenges posed by tokens and AI.

This professional education offering is held regularly. The next session and registration options can be found here — if currently available.
