Abstract

Starting from the consideration that fighting cybercrime is a continuous process, the more the types of old crimes are committed today through modern means (computer fraud) at distances of thousands of kilometers, international cooperation is vital to combat this phenomenon. In EU countries, still under financial crisis "the phrase", cybercrime has found a "positive environment" taking advantage of poor security management systems of these countries. Factors that led criminal groups to switch "their activities" are related to so-called advantages of the "gains" obtained with relatively low risk. In Romania, more than any of the EU member states criminal activities set as target financial institutions or foreign citizens, weakening confidence in financial systems and the security of communication networks in our country, people's confidence in electronic payment instruments and those available on the Internet.
