Abstract

The 21st century is called the digital century. The digital world and modern mobile digital technologies are everywhere today. This shift in technology development brings not only huge benefits but also huge risks. Digital crime is one of the fastest-growing criminal activities, with more than a million people becoming victims of it worldwide every day. The peculiarity of these crimes is that, due to the development of digital technologies, the content of crime has changed; and most of it is committed in a virtual environment. For many years, the international community and states have been attempting to counter the commission of crimes using computer technology. Conventions, agreements, recommendations, and laws are adopted. But at present, they do not fully reflect the situation in this area. No less attention is paid to the problems caused by using modern technologies in the scientific literature. But there is no unity of opinion, most of the writings use such mostly outdated terms as “computer crime,” “cybercrime”, etc. At the same time, an analysis of the state of crime in this field, as well as of legislation and scientific literature, shows that there is a need for clarification of the existing concept of computer crime, expanding it to the concept of the “digital crime.”
