INTERNATIONAL LEGAL REGULATION OF HARMFUL CYBER INFORMATION AND ICT RISKS

This paper investigates the growing risks posed by harmful cyber information, including cybercrime, cyberterrorism, and digital fraud, within the context of global cyberspace. As digital technologies penetrate deeper into society, the spread of malicious content via phishing, viruses, and unauthorized access has become a critical threat to both individuals and corporations. National legislation alone proves insufficient in addressing these transnational challenges. The paper examines international legal efforts from global summits in Geneva, Tunis, and Athens, emphasizing the role of ICT as a tool for peace, security, and sustainable development. The study proposes a harmonized international framework for cyber regulation that accounts for the diverse digital realities of both developed and developing nations.
