Abstract

The goal of the geographic management of cyber crime is to ensure continuation of the police organization’s         accomlishments and achievments, and to prevent sudden and startling events by choosing appropriate strategies against environmental change. To confront the consequences of the emergence of new information technologies,    police organizations have to choose a collection of strategic geographic options in the midst of two conditions of    continuation the current state of affairs and the creation of change and development. It should be noted that the    components of criminology of physical fraud are very different from cybercrime, and the legislator also has partial reaction in the penalization of these types of crimes. One of the main problems in dealing with these types of crimes is the spatial characteristics of the crime requiring legal and police jurisdiction. The purpose of this paper is the spatial analysis of criminality of citizens in the cyberspace of Tehran. The research method of this article is                        analytical-descriptive. This paper is based on the statistical community of all the number of unauthorized withdrawals from bank accounts in cyberspace in the year 1989 in Tehran. In the analysis of the information of this research,    statistical-graphical methods have been used in the form of GIS. In this study, the mean center test, standard deviation ellipse, clustering test and spatial correlation analysis of the global Moran statistic have been performed. Results   indicate that the crime of financial fraud in cyberspace was observed with an East-West orientation in the regions with the highest concentration of economic activity. Two important spatial factors, namely population density and economic centers, are among the most important factors in shaping the focal points of this type of crime.
