Abstract

The development of digital technologies has led to the shift of organized crime into a virtual environment. The use of technological innovations by criminal associations as a tool, the subject of a crime and a means of communication actualizes the need for scientific understanding of the degree of penetration of organized crime into cybercrime with an assessment of changes in its quantitative and qualitative characteristics.

The purpose of the study is to develop recommendations for improving criminal law measures to counteract crimes committed in an organized manner in information and telecommunication networks (including the Internet). Achievement of the goal is ensured by assessing international practices in combating organized crime and cybercrime, the state of the Russian criminal legislation, developing promising areas for optimizing the Russian Criminal Code.

Research methods: comparative legal, formal logical, discursive analysis, generalization, analysis and synthesis.

Identifying the specifics of criminal associations operating in cyberspace, correlating their features with the provisions of current legislation allows identifying such associations with normative forms of complicity: an organized group and a criminal community (criminal organization). It is proposed to modernize Article 210 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation by taking into account a new way of creating and functioning highly organized criminal associations — in information and telecommunications networks (including the Internet). The idea of criminalizing the creation and operation of network platforms for the implementation of crimes as a business was supported.
