Abstract

The purpose of the research is to analyze cybercrime as the most recent phenomenon of the information society, induced by the technological breakthrough of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, which brought risks and challenges to all mankind. Objective of the study is the theoretical analysis of a rather complex and dangerous phenomenon of cybercrime, the occurrence of which is caused by a dynamic process of criminal use of disruptive technologies in selfish purposes of criminals for the enrichment and unlawful use. Cybercriminals are regularly updating techniques and tools to apply the latest technology to their illegal activities. Today, criminals are developing their clandestine mobile radio telecommunications systems in all countries and are demonstrating the highest level of technical expertise to improve them and in doing so outperform the defenders of law and order. Nowadays cybercriminals are practicing hacking into hundreds of millions of dollars’ worth of accounts, and they are far ahead of the curve. Thus, today we must realize the threatening scale of both organized cybercrime and terrorist organizations, to which governments have fallen out of favor as they turn on the people. The control of cybercrime in the information space acts as an object of research. The subject of the study includes ways to overcome the challenges and threats spread in cyberspace.
