Global Trends of Cybercrime and National Cybersecurity Strategy Research
With the increasing global internet connectivity, cybercrime has increasingly become a severe challenge faced by the international community. This paper aims to deeply analyze the impact of cybercrime and evaluate the effectiveness of national cybersecurity policies. By collecting and analyzing data on cybercrime incidents from the VERIS Community Database (VCDB), this paper reveals the geographical distribution, type characteristics, and development trends of cybercrime. The study finds that developed countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia are the main targets of cybercrime, and there is a significant correlation between the frequency of cybercrime and the demographic data of countries. Based on these findings, this paper puts forward targeted policy recommendations to assist governments of various countries in formulating more effective cybersecurity strategies. This research provides important theoretical and practical bases for understanding the complexity of cybercrime and formulating countermeasures.
