[{"type":"text","content":" HERZLIYA, Israel--(BUSINESS WIRE)--\nCognyte Software Ltd. (NASDAQ: CGNT) (“Cognyte”), a global leader in software-driven technology for investigative analytics, today announced the availability of a new threat trends report, “Crime Goes Digital Native: The Impact of Gen Z & Alpha on Law Enforcement.”\n\nWHAT: “Crime Goes Digital Native” shows how the next generations – Gen Z, Gen Alpha and soon Gen Beta – are rapidly reshaping the nature of crime and public safety.\n\nWHO: The report will be useful for the following readers:\n\n\nLaw enforcement leaders and investigators\n\n\nCybercrime, digital forensics and intelligence units\n\n\nPublic safety agencies and fusion centers\n\n\nHomeland security, justice and regulatory officials\n\n\nPolicymakers focused on tech, youth behavior and public safety\n\n\nSchools, universities and campus security teams\n\n\nChild protection and youth-focused organizations\n\n\nTrust & safety, security and compliance teams at tech platforms\n\n\nSocial media, gaming and AI companies\n\n\nResearchers studying crime, youth behavior or digital ecosystems\n\n\nWHERE: The report is available for download here.\n\nWHY: Gen Z and Gen Alpha – and soon Gen Beta – are not just “kids online.” They are AI-fluent, toggling between platforms and spending time in digital spaces that are difficult for law enforcement to monitor, from encrypted group chats to gaming worlds and disappearing DMs. While regulators are still trying to keep pace with crypto crime, deepfakes and rapidly evolving online platforms, younger users are already creating new norms that speed up how scams, influence campaigns and emerging threats take hold.\n\nThis is not simply a cultural shift; it is a structural one, changing how crimes occur and pushing law enforcement to rethink investigations, prevention and digital preparedness. The report offers a clear, timely view of that shift – and why agencies need to adjust now.\n\nAbout Cognyte\nCognyte is a leading software-driven technology company, focused on solutions for data processing and investigative analytics that allow customers to generate Actionable Intelligence for a Safer World™.
