Crimes in the field of computer informationPaperback, 25 February 2021

Computerization of life has not only positive but also negative sides. Today there is an avalanche-like increase in computer-related crime. These criminal offences usually have more "long-range" goals and are complex organized criminal activities of an economic nature.States now acknowledge the growth of computer crime, particularly in the financial and credit sector; the information space is used to foment ethnic and religious hatred; there is a trend towards the militarization of the information space and an increase in the information arms race, which threatens international peace, security and stability; however, effective measures to combat this type of criminal offence in the arsenal of law enforcement agencies are very limited, and those that exist are used in an extremely ineffective manner.In order to develop effective measures to combat this type of crime, it is necessary to continue to study the theory and practice of applying the law on computer crime, including those related to the economic sphere.
