Criminalistic Characteristics of Crimes in the Field of Computer Information
( Pp. 33-37)

Abstract: The purpose of this study is to study issues related to the commission of crimes in the field of computer information. Most often, the actions of criminals are expressed in interference with the operation of computer equipment, intrusion into the operation of programs, databases, computer networks, as well as in performing illegal actions related to access to these devices. Through the use of computer technology and computer information by criminals, the work of state authorities is destabilized, as well as the work of information systems is disorganized. These actions can pose a physical threat to people's lives, create a threat of death, financial losses. Criminals can use computer information to violate public safety, put pressure on public authorities, create a stir and panic among the population. In addition, criminals can use the worldwide network not only for financial gain, but also to fight the current government. That is why it is necessary to develop effective methods of struggle. One of the important ways is to increase computer literacy among the population, conducting educational work about cybercrime through the media.
It is concluded that there is a need to create effective measures on the part of the state, whose criminal law policy should be aimed at solving urgent problems related to crimes committed in the field of computer information. These crimes differ significantly from traditional ones and have a number of features that are important to take into account. For example, it is their international nature that prevents the capture of criminals, since it is necessary to combine the legislation of different countries, often with different views on the problem. If there are no international treaties, it is necessary to conduct lengthy negotiations, which often do not succeed. Problems also arise in the investigation and collection of evidence. In addition to the fact that it is in principle more difficult than when the crime is committed physically, there remains an obstacle associated with international agreements or their absence.
