Abstract: This study aims to provide a brief analysis of the criminal phenomenon in the field of software science. This phenomenon has grown, taking into consideration the fact that, lately, against the background of the lack of jobs and income for young people, the precarious economic situation in which the country has been struggling for 30 years, and the increasingly exacerbated technological development. Therefore, we believe that it is necessary to conduct a short analysis to define cybercrime succinctly but eloquently, outlining the causes and premises for the development of cybercrime, which could help to prevent, legislate, and penalize this criminal scourge.
