Abstract

This study aims to explore the role of artificial intelligence (AI) and cybersecurity in combating corruption in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. Corruption represents a serious challenge facing all countries while achieving development for their societies, and Jordan is making significant efforts in trying to address this problem through innovative strategies. This study attempts to identify these strategies, as the results of this study showed wide-ranging strategies taken by the Jordanian Integrity and Anti-Corruption Commission to employ artificial intelligence (AI) and cybersecurity to combat corruption and achieve integrity and justice. Through the Commission’s digital transformation projects, namely: the Intelligence system, Digital and Case Management system, the Compliance system, the Digital Evidence laboratory, and the smartphone application. Digital transformation projects aim to enhance the principles of integrity, transparency, and the rule of law, develop anti-corruption mechanisms and follow the growth of wealth for those charged with the illicit enrichment law. Also, accelerating the investigation process, and the gathering of evidence and information, and contributing to predicting and preventing the occurrence of corruption crimes in the future, enhance accountability and transparency, and enhance good governance.
