Cybercrime is the use of electronic communication for criminal activities.[1] The concept of cybercrime depends upon the purpose of the term. Cybercrime almost always encompasses acts against the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of computer data or systems. More broadly, the term refers to computer/content-related acts for personal or financial gain or harm.[2]
