Abstract/Overview

As Kenya matures into an information society, she is exposed to various cyber threats and challenges resulting from the ubiquity of the internet and advancement of technology. Social engineering tricks have been applied to exploit vulnerabilities in people, processes and technologies used in varied environments. On the other hand, computer forensics development plays catch up with the rising challenges within the field especially on the levels of expertise. Social learning brings the element of gaining cultural knowledge, skills, attitudes, strategies, rules and beliefs through observing others. To determine the need for a proactive means of overcoming the ever challenging cybercrime, a Social Learning perspective into the development of standardized procedures in legislation, investigation processes, certification and training of cybercrime investigators is explored, so computer forensics can become a more effective and mature field in curbing cybercrime investigation barriers, especially in predicting and understanding of cybercriminals’ behavior.
