The article examines the essence of versioned thinking of the subjects of detecting and investigating crimes. The author cites – with his comments – a number of definitions of the not yet established concept of “forensic thinking”. At the same time, it turns out that the essence of this concept is becoming more and more blurred and more and more abstract. The author claims, it is argued that there is no special forensic thinking, since the basis of any thinking is knowledge from different branches of science, however, we can talk about a versioned style of information analysis. Developing this style of thinking is a learning task. This is the answer to the question “what to teach?” (content of training). Another question is “how to teach?” Here are the features of didactics (goals, principles and teaching methods). According to the author, the term “forensic activity” is not correct. Due to the fact that criminalistic means are used in some – lawyer, prosecutor’s, judicial (and even criminal) – activity, it does not become forensic. The article reveals some of the pedagogical features of the formation of a dynamic stereotype of versioned thinking in practical lessons in forensic science by the type of conditional-probabilistic syllogism.

‘Investigating crime’ explains how the police investigate criminal activity, setting out some of the principles and procedures involved and how forensic science provides them with answers. Radical changes in English law and forensic science practices resulted in the introduction of formal quality assurance systems to standardize laboratory practices and the Police and Criminal Evidence Act (1984), which specifies how police deal with accused persons, go about their investigations, and are accountable for their actions. The ‘trace, interview, eliminate’ (TIE) method of systematic elimination of individuals from an investigation is described, as well as the role of digital forensics to extract and interpret data from a wide range of devices.

Theoretical developments and practical experience of countering cyberthreats in the field of information security of Ukraine are analyzed. It is determined that the crime prevention in the field of information security is structurally composed of several stages. They include: search for primary information on criminal activity in the information field ; prevention of cybercrime; detection of illegal actions in the field of information security while operative investigative activities and pre-trial investigation of criminal proceedings. The most common illegal actions in the field of information security is unauthorized tampering in the work of information and telecommunications systems. In order to identify these crimes during operative investigative activities within the criminal procedure operational officers and investigators must possess methods of detecting specified illegal actions and objects that can be subject to research. Theoretical bases of recommendations for search, detection, fixation and seizure of these facilities should be appropriate criminalistic methods. Legal basis for the formation of these methods should be legislative and departmental regulatory acts. However, in a number of normative legal acts related to ensuring cybersecurity in Ukraine, there are inconsistencies in the conceptual apparatus, especially with regard to specific object types of forensic science, signs of unauthorized tampering in the work of information and telecommunications systems. It was found out that counteraction to cyberthreats in the field of information security in Ukraine should be based on a system integrated approach to use of all structural elements, coordination of its subject activities including forensic experts. The theoretical basis for the formation of a system integrated approach to crime prevention in this field is the implementation of research on research of theoretical applied branches of jurisprudence: criminalistics, theory of forensic science, theory of operative investigative activities.

This article is devoted to the consideration of theoretical problems of using information systems in forensic science research. Main features of forensic science research at the present stage are carried out that can be attributed to their high research intensity, use of cybernetics achievements which integrating into criminalistics and forensic science act as a catalyst for further development of its traditional means and methods based on achievements of natural, technical and human sciences. The great influence of informatics on forensic expert practice is due to optimization of cognitive processes; further expert activity automation; rationalization of decisions made using information systems, etc. Despite the extensive practice of applying information flows in the intellectual activity of the modern human and broad theoretical development of this scientific category; today there is no constant definition of the "information" concept. This is explained by a variety of the application of information areas, multidirectional nature of information flows, there are a large number of operators exchanging information, rapid development of modern communication connections and technologies. Information in the field of forensic expert activity is derived from legal information but has a number of individual features. Proceeding from this, the information in the field of forensic expert activity is understood as a information collection about material objects, facts, phenomena and processes containing data about criminal activity circumstances and are investigated by an forensic expert using special knowledge. On the basis of the analysis of scientific opinions the definition about information activity of forensic expert is formulated, which is understood a complex of acts based on laws and regulations, aimed at obtaining information about objects of expert research by implementing a set of information-research, informational-communicative and informational-analytical activities with the purpose of compiling a competent conclusion.

Operative-search activity as a science in its theoretical and practical content is closest to forensic science. They have similar objects of research– criminal activity and the activities of authorized state bodies to identify, disclose and investigate it. Specialists in the field of operative-search activity and forensic science note a lot in common in the genesis of both sciences, theoretical positions, methods, tactical and methodological recommendations. In addition, examining the history of the formation of forensic science and operational-search activity, one can come to a reasonable conclusion that both sciences formed a single whole for a long time and then each developed in its own direction, intersecting and moving away from each other in its genesis.

AbstractHow far can teaching methods go to enhance learning? Optimal methods of teaching have been considered in research on supervised and unsupervised learning. Locally optimal methods are usually hybrids of teaching and self-directed approaches. The costs and benefits of specific methods have been shown to depend on the structure of the learning task, the learners, the teachers, and the environment.

The article draws attention to signs of the crisis state of domestic humanitarian science. As a solution, the need for interdisciplinary research in the field of science of the anti-criminal cycle is justified. The evidence mechanism demonstrates both the relevance and success of the multidisciplinary approach. The author, through the unity of activities for the detection, disclosure and investigation of crimes, as well as the unity of purpose, object, subjects, functions and means of this activity, argues the inseparability of its criminal procedural and forensic component. According to the author, the mechanism of criminal activity and the mechanism of criminal procedure, inextricably linked, provide a genetic link between the criminal process and forensic science. To recognize the mechanism of proof as the subject of interdisciplinary research, it is proposed to consider the mechanism of criminal activity and the mechanism of proof through the prism of methodological laws between criminal activity and activities for the detection, disclosure and investigation of crimes, between the circumstances to be established in a criminal case and the means of evidence.

The activity-based systems approach has been gaining in importance as a method of scientific inquiry, with its methodological orientation towards the study of objective reality in its relationship with our understanding of the nature, structure and genesis of various forms of activity. «Activity» is a central concept of this approach that reflects the multidimensional and multilayered nature of social existence. The scientific use of this concept has its roots in philosophical tradition. «Activity» is one of the more important categories in the system of forensic knowledge. Human activity is the key object of theoretical, applied and translational research in forensic science. This includes criminal activity as the object of inquiry, on the one hand, and forensic activity as the object of management and optimization, on the other hand.

The article deals with some aspects of digitalization of forensic activity, such as improving the efficiency of search and cognitive activity of an investigator using digital technologies, and effective organization of such activity. Use of computer hardware, software, various computer and digital technologies and scripting to investigate crimes. The definitions of “digital trace” and “virtual trace” demonstrate the complexity of these issues. Certain dynamic movement of criminal activity in the information environment is analyzed. Defines the concept of virtual trace as a specific trace of certain actions in the information space of computer devices and their network systems. In considering the definition of the concept of virtual trace, the views of scientists such as V.A. Meshcheriakov, V.V. Poliakov and Smushkin A.V. The aspects of consideration of forensic digitization are identified, among which the main ones are: – use of digital technologies to increase the effectiveness of search and cognitive activity of the investigator, effective organization of this activity at the present level, optimization of interaction of different bodies, institutions in the investigation of crimes. – the use of information and communication technologies to investigate crimes. – solving didactic tasks in the field of training, retraining, advanced training of investigators, criminal investigators, forensic experts, improvement of their qualification, exchange of experience. The further question of the development of forensic science in the field of information society is investigated. It is determined in what form the information forensics will exist, namely: A new section of classic forensics that focuses on working with digital and virtual footprints. The new science of “digital or virtual forensics”. 3. Independent forensic science within the framework of the general theory of forensic science, which integrates the development of virtual traces, the use of new technical means of finding, fixing, research, use in proving forensically relevant information, technologies that ensure the effectiveness of the investigator.
