CYBERCRIME IN THE EUROPEAN UNION.

According to research conducted by global research teams, sophisticated threat designers are involved in attacking other groups to steal victims' data, borrow tools and techniques, and reuse infrastructure - making information about threats more difficult to detect for cyber security researchers. Exact threat information is based on identifying specific models and tools for a particular author. Such knowledge enables researchers to better identify the aims of offenders, targets and behaviors and help organizations to determine their level of risk. When the authors start attacking each other and take control of instruments, infrastructure, and even victims, this pattern begins to shake. Researchers believe that these attacks are most likely being carried out by state-supported assault groups targeting foreign or less prepared entities. It is important for IT security researchers to learn how to identify and interpret the signals of these attacks so they can put the information in context. The paper aims to bring to the forefront the cybercrime issue and some legal aspects of cybercrime in the European Union (EU). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
