Cybercrime Network

Definition

A cybercrime network represents an organized group of individuals collaborating to conduct illegal activities using digital systems. These networks often operate across international borders, leveraging advanced technical skills to perpetrate fraud, data theft, ransomware attacks, and other illicit acts. Their structure can range from loosely affiliated groups to highly sophisticated organizations with specialized roles. The anonymity offered by certain digital assets and decentralized platforms sometimes aids their financial transactions and operational secrecy.
