From the Digitalization of Society and Cybercrime to the Training of Cyber Police Officers

Digital technologies in the life of a modern person have led to not only positive, but also negative consequences. Among them, the greatest risks are posed by cybercrime, the growth rate of which is increasing every year. Despite the institutionalization of the cyberpolice service, the training of cyberpolice personnel for the internal affairs bodies remains extremely relevant. The purpose and objectives of the study are to justify the need to train cyberpolice officers within the framework of an interdisciplinary master's program, for example, with the profile "investigation of digital crimes"; assessing trends in the transformation of "old" and "new" digital forms of deviance; analyzing the development of cybercrime and cybervictimization, digital social control and its law enforcement institutions; integrating legal, behavioral and technological knowledge in an educational project. The statistical method and content analysis of scientific literature were used, some experience in training cyberpolice officers was summarized. The significance of the work lies in the formulation of a social problem, its understanding and justification of a solution. It is proposed to implement the training of cyber police officers in a departmental educational system, where a foundation of legal, deviantological research and knowledge has been formed with the involvement of specialists from the IT sphere and law enforcement practice.
