The aim is to identify universal and nationally specific traits of offenders in cyberspace through comparative analysis of Russian and international experience. Relevance stems from the exponential growth of cybercrime (up to 25% annually according to Russian MVD data) and its transnational nature. It is established that 68% of cybercriminals are individuals under 35 with advanced technical skills but reduced socio-ethical competencies. The conclusions emphasize the need for proactive criminological models integrating artificial intelligence for behavioral forecasting.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Предметом исследования выступает комплекс криминологических и психологических характеристик, формирующих портрет киберпреступника в условиях цифровой трансформации. Цель работы — выявление универсальных и национально-специфических черт личности преступника в киберпространстве на основе сравнительного анализа российского и международного опыта. Актуальность обусловлена экспоненциальным ростом киберпреступности (до 25% ежегодно по данным МВД России) и её транснациональным характером. Установлено, что 68% киберпреступников — лица до 35 лет, обладающие высоким уровнем технической подготовки, но сниженными социально-этическими компетенциями. Выводы статьи подчёркивают необходимость развития проактивных криминологических моделей прогнозирования поведения с интеграцией искусственного интеллекта.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>cybercriminal</kwd><kwd>digital criminology</kwd><kwd>criminological profile</kwd><kwd>cyber fraud</kwd><kwd>information security</kwd><kwd>APT attacks</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>киберпреступник</kwd><kwd>цифровая криминология</kwd><kwd>криминологический портрет</kwd><kwd>кибермошенничество</kwd><kwd>информационная безопасность</kwd><kwd>APT-атаки</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="en">Federal Law No. 187-FZ dated July 26, 2017 "On the Security of Critical Information Infrastructure"</mixed-citation><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Федеральный закон от 26.07.2017 № 187-ФЗ «О безопасности критической информационной инфраструктуры»</mixed-citation></citation-alternatives></ref><ref id="B2"><label>2.</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="en">Cybercrime statistics in the Russian Federation 2023–2024.
