| Summary: | The article deals with the problem of combating cybercrime in the Russian Federation in the context of its transition to the digital economy. Society and the state in the 90s and early 2000s did not recognize the danger behind cybercrimes. The concept of absolute freedom of dissemination of information, which existed at the time, and other factors have led to a high increase in cybercrime today. The authors concluded that the situation changed only in the last decade, when they began to fight against cybercrime in a comprehensive manner. The article also discusses the issue of delimiting cybercrimes from related criminal acts. The Russian Federation has recognized cybercrime as the main threat to state security and the stability of society. This is reflected both in the development of criminal-legal measures to combat cybercrimes and in preventive measures of an administrative nature. Objects of the so-called critical information infrastructure received special legal protection. The article also reviewed the social danger of some cybercrimes having been already liable to criminal responsibility.
