CYBERCRIME AND GLOBAL SECURITY THREATS: A CHALLENGE IN INTERNATIONAL LAW

Abstract

This research aims to examine the challenges faced in handling cyber crimes and global security threats from the perspective of international law. In the digital era, cyber crimes are increasing and causing detrimental impacts both at the national and international levels. Therefore, international cooperation and strong law enforcement are needed to overcome this challenge. The research method used in this study is a descriptive-analytical approach. This research was conducted by analyzing regulations and policies that apply at the international and national levels, as well as literature studies from reliable sources. The results of the research show that the challenges faced in handling cyber crime and global security threats cannot be solved individually by a country. Strong international cooperation and harmonization of international law are needed to overcome this challenge. International cooperation between countries in the field of information and technology is very important to build better cybersecurity.
