A cooperação internacional no combate aos crimes cibernéticos transnacionais: desafios e perspectivas jurídicas

Abstract

The technological advancement has brought numerous benefits, but it has also facilitated the practice of cybercrimes on a global scale. In light of this, international cooperation has become essential to combat these crimes that transcend borders. This research seeks to answer the following research question: what are the theoretical and practical legal challenges involved in international cooperation in the fight against cybercrimes? The general objective is to analyze these challenges, focusing on the joint efforts between states. The research is divided into three chapters. The first discusses cybercrimes, their history, types, and the importance of international combat. The second describes international cooperation at the national, Latin American, and global levels, and the third addresses the Budapest Convention, its impacts, and the main techniques and strategies used to combat these crimes. The relevance of the topic lies in the transformation brought by the digital age, increasing the risks of crimes that cross borders. The methodology adopted involves the hypothetical-deductive method, based on literature review, analysis of legislation, and practical cases that illustrate cooperation between countries. The expected and achieved result is to demonstrate that international cooperation is essential for effectively combating cybercrimes, despite the theoretical and practical legal challenges. Finally, the research contributes to the academic community regarding the risks of these crimes and the need for more efficient prevention and repression policies.
