Abstract

Today we live in a world of global digital connections. In a simple and inexpensive way, with help of
modern digital technologies, we can make an ordinary conversation or multimillion monetary transactions with
people who are on the other side of the world. The way we spend our leisure time and the way we conduct
business relations is changed by the easy access to the computer systems and the internet as well as from the up
growing market of new communication devices.
In parallel with these global transformations, the way criminals commit their criminal acts have changed
too. The universal digital access opens new opportunities for the modern, computer savvy delinquents, who can
use this technology and knowledge to cause harm not only to business users but to ordinary users, as well. More
worse is the fact that, the computers and networks may be even used for coordination and completion of
terroristic attacks, which endanger us all. Unfortunately, in many cases, security services lag behind all those
delinquents in terms of technical- technological sense, as well as in the personnel training for suppression of this
new and up growing threat called computer or cybercrime.
Thus, for the Republic of Macedonia and the rest of the countries as an imperative comes the need to
make a legal base for sanctioning the computer crimes and then to facilitate adequate capacities that will
effectuate the strategy for suppression of this type of crimes. Macedonian experiences in manner of creating and
constantly innovating the legal framework, as well as in practical dealings with this type of crimes, may be used
as a positive example for successful suppression of cybercrimes.
Key words: computer, cybercrimes, reforms, suppression, Republic of Macedonia
