Abstract

The emergence of cybercrime has made it difficult for the police in Indonesia to tackle cybercrime. It can be seen from the increasing number of cybercrimes in Indonesia from 2012 to 2019, especially in fraud and content-related crimes. Through qualitative research using literature review, interviews, and observation methods, the study identified four factors as the cause of the increase in cybercrime in Indonesia. The four factors are, (1) low digital literacy and a wide digital gap in society; (2) limited capability of the police; (3) absence of knowledge management system; and (4) weak community policing practices. By using eight variables in the Ponsaers (2001) framework, the author makes a hybrid policing model, which is an alternative policing model, to overcome the weaknesses of policing practices by opening up opportunities for community participation in tackling cybercrime. This hybrid policing model can be called a dynamic engine in cybercrime policing which has three typologies, namely non-hybrid policing, semi-hybrid policing, and pseudo-hybrid policing.
