Reflections on Informatic Crime in the Republic of Moldova

Abstract

The evolution of the socio-economic sphere inevitably generates changes in the criminal phenomenon, in this sense, the Republic of Moldova is not an exception. In recent years, there has been a growing spread of cybercrime. In addition, a number of crimes involve the increasing use of information technology in crime. The examination of the concept and features of cybercrime and of the incriminating juridical-criminal means destined to fight this phenomenon, represents an urgent necessity, of a special topicality. The latent character and the complexity of the IT operations determine the connection of the legal and organizational-institutional basis, destined to the social control of the IT crimes. In this sense, we propose the examination of cybercrime in terms of the specific legislative and organizational-institutional of the Republic of Moldova.
