Resumo
The purpose of this study was to study the development of information and communication technologies as the main source of cybercrime. Cybercrimes include crimes committed by using a personal computer to create virus programs, the purpose of which is to carry out computer attacks on objects of human vital activity. Cyber attacks threaten national security by destroying the physical system of the state, transferring control over these systems to a third party, and threatening the confidentiality of personal data. Today, cases of deliberate hacking of critical information infrastructure for the purpose of theft, espionage, intimidation, destruction, etc. have become more frequent all over the world. This is also done to aggravate conflicts up to armed confrontation. It has been established that for the sustainable development of the Russian Federation and its national security, a reliable and secure critical information infrastructure and an improved regulatory framework are needed. The introduction of new technologies is an objective process, but it remains unclear who and how their results will be used. Modern gadgets are equipped with programs based on artificial intelligence. All this can positively serve the goals of the state, special services and law enforcement agencies, or it can become an instrument of an illegal act in the hands of criminals. It is concluded that the entire security system should ensure the prevention of catastrophic consequences of hacker attacks that infringe on people's life support systems, power systems, railways, critical information structure, etc. And this task cannot be adequately solved by the efforts of one agency, i.e. forces of law enforcement structures are not enough to counteract cyber attacks. All major decisions should be made at the interdepartmental level with the involvement of high-tech specialists. This will help form a common picture, identify a common enemy and greatly simplify his prosecution for legal action. The viability of these measures can only be ensured by a common system built on the principle of reliability, based on forecasting the situation and taking into account potential risks for society and the state.
