According to the authors, digital (cyber) crimes should include all types of criminally punishable acts committed using modern digital technologies. And since digital technologies are widely used in everyday life, the risk of becoming a victim of a digital crime increases significantly. That is why, in the modern pe-riod of society's development, it is very important to pay attention to the prevention of digital crime. The authors emphasize that the prevention of digital crimes is based on the regulatory regulation of relations in the field of digital technologies. Relying on the current legislation, the subjects of preven-tion ensure the prevention of cybercrime. In the fight against digital crimes, the institute of infor-mation and analytical support is of great importance, which is not limited only to the use of mass me-dia and the Internet. Information and analytical support also involves the use of various information databases, various software aimed at timely receipt of operationally relevant information necessary for the successful prevention and suppression of digital crimes committed. The prevention of digital crime is impossible without carrying out various operational investigative measures carried out by employees of operational units. Engaged in the suppression and disclosure of cybercrime, employ-ees of these units implement the law enforcement function of the state. At the same time, the opera-tional units of the internal affairs bodies have at their disposal both public (open) and secret methods of conducting operational search activities. At the end of the study, the authors emphasize that the suppression and disclosure of digital crimes is multifaceted. Only an integrated, comprehensive approach to the prevention of digital crime can bring effective results and reduce the indicators of this type of crime.
