Abstract
A growing number of new types of criminality causes concern of the society, authorities and, in particular, of criminologists, since the penetration of criminals into the virtual environment and learning to use new technologies become dangerous and adjust criminal motivation. The sophistication of criminality prevention and countering defines the goal of this research consisting in a thorough scientific understanding of existing criminological methods. Modern informational-analytical area of activity of law-enforcement authorities includes the use of digital criminological tools under criminality prevention programs, mathematical methods of its analysis, making up profiles, etc. They are usually applied for criminological analysis and prediction but it has no theoretical basis that addresses the issues of countering digital crimes and that is being formed currently based on criminological neo-classics and achievements of social and human sciences and digital criminology. As a methodological basis for the research, a general scientific dialectic method of scientific cognition was used. Moreover, the paper uses a number of particular scientific methods that include historical-legal, comparative-legal methods, statistic observation and analysis of generalized information. The novelty of the research consists in the fact that its results can be used by experts whose professional activity is intended against crimes.
Highlights
Modern criminality indicators prevent from formulating a comprehensive understanding of its dynamics and trends and are only a tool to evaluate the work of the system of lawenforcement authorities
These categories were classified, a methodological basis was developed and perspective trends were defined for the development of a new vector of scientific search in criminology [5]
The goal of this study is the generalization of innovations that will improve the efficiency of crime prevention when used in theoretical and practical criminology
Summary
Modern criminality indicators prevent from formulating a comprehensive understanding of its dynamics and trends and are only a tool to evaluate the work of the system of lawenforcement authorities This problem is not new for researchers in the area of criminology that frequently state limitations of tools available to practical workers whose activity is intended against crimes [1]. These categories were classified, a methodological basis was developed and perspective trends were defined for the development of a new vector of scientific search in criminology [5]
