An IP address, also known as an ”Internet protocol address”, is the address used by devices that exchange data with each other over an internet network or any other computer network.
The IP address allocated by the Internet service provider to the “access provider”,as it is called in the law, is used as evidence to prove the crime committed, especially cybercrimes, and to access the perpetrator.
The IP address can be static or dynamic. IP address of a computer with a static address is always the same. A dynamic address is a temporary assignment of an empty address by the service provider to the requesting device. The difference between dynamic and static IP is especially important in intellectual property tests at the investigation or prosecution stage. Dec. It is now widely known that IP addresses can be manipulated in various ways, that is, they can be changed. For this reason, IP addresses cannot be used as evidence alone unless they are supported by expert and expert opinions that they are reliable and have not been changed.
Crimes that can be committed over the Internet are diversifying every day and are increasingly preoccupying the judiciary. If a prosecution investigation or criminal case has been opened against you for a crime that you did not commit based solely on IP address evidence, you should definitely get legal assistance from a lawyer.
