Abstract
This article examines the current state of research on cybercrime, focusing on its key actors, targets, and methods of counteraction. It highlights the growing scale, complexity, and economic significance of cyber threats, as well as the increasing role of artificial intelligence in both offensive and defensive activities. The study also identifies major research gaps and emphasizes the need for integrated and interdisciplinary approaches to effectively address cybercrime
