Abstract
The cybercrime thrives, understanding its evolution is critical for security and policy interventions. This research profiles cyber threat trends since the 1950s alongside legal developments. Background examines early hacking cultures, antivirus innovations, and seminal cases that set precedents. The objectives encompass analyzing major technical and legal inflection points over recent decades regarding cybercrimes. The study's aim is validating escalating cyber risks that demand urgent attention. Doctrinal methodology leverages scholarly journals, case law, and industry data. Key findings reveal sophisticated social engineering tactics, gaps in legal deterrence frameworks, and infrastructure vulnerabilities that underscore needs for global cooperation. Recommendations center on proactive reforms to cybersecurity statutes, public awareness, and cross-border collaboration to mitigate emerging threats. Tracing cybercrime's timeline provides vital context to catalyze preemptive actions against potential attacks in an increasingly interconnected online ecosystem.
