Organized crime is often associated with traditional criminal groups, such as the mafia or outlaw motorcycle gangs; however, new research suggests that cybercrime is emerging as a new branch of organized crime. This paper is focused on the changing nature of organized crime and the factors that influence this shift, particularly in the online space. It will address the question: Can the law identify cybercrime as organized crime? The results of this paper are informed by an in-depth analysis of peer-reviewed articles from Canada, the United States (US), and Europe. This paper concludes that cybercrime groups are structured and operate similarly to traditional organized crime groups and should, therefore, be classified as a part of traditional organized crime; however, cybercrime groups are capable of conducting illicit activities that surpass those typically associated with traditional organized crime. This shift suggests that these groups may represent a larger threat creating a new challenge for law enforcement agencies.


Subject Internet control in China. Significance The Cybersecurity Law, passed in November 2016, will take effect on June 1 this year. Since the law's passage, other policy moves have strengthened state control over cyberspace ahead of a five-yearly Communist Party Congress and leadership reshuffle later this year. The Party apparatus is committed to creating a ‘harmonious’ media environment in a politically sensitive period. Impacts Online fraud, especially in P2P finance, will remain the most high-profile cybercrime. Online theft of personal or institutional information will rise as a law-enforcement priority. Guidelines for data extraction by law enforcement agencies, hinted at after the Cybersecurity Law passed, are unlikely to be prioritised. Cybersecurity reviews may become a trade dispute issue, adding to tensions with the US administration. Streaming and webcast sites will be stifled by an unfolding dual-registration system.

Criminal analysis in law enforcement agencies’ work has been around for many years. Initially, it was used by police offi cers in a nonformalised way, its main purpose being to try to understand and systematise crimes. Attempts to draw conclusions from the collected data contributed to greater effectiveness of the detection process. Nowadays, the need for effi ciency in processing the increasing amount of data, and the far-reaching professionalisation of criminal groups have resulted in the fact that criminal analysis is no longer a cure-all for a lack of thinking, but an indispensable tool in the effective fi ght against crime. Considering the above, the article presents the need for the effective use of criminal analysis in combatting mainly organised crime of an economic nature.

Fight against corruption is one of global problems of modern society, that is why law-enforcement agencies have the most important objective of developing effective and innovative psychological and educational technologies of fighting against corruption-related offences. It is especially important to form rejection of corruption by would-be law-enforcement officials (specialists of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Federal Security Service, the Federal Penal Service, the Investigation Committee, the Judicial System, the Prosecutor’s Office), as life and health of the population of Russia depends on the legitimacy of their decisions. One of the ways to fight against corruption in organizations of higher education can be forming of students’ anticorruption personality orientation which is realized by the authors as integrative personality education providing anti-corruption legislation compliance in the sphere of professional occupation by means of structural components of personality orientation (motivational-axiological, emotional-volitional, cognitive, spiritual and moral) which are being formed in the process of studying in the higher education establishment.

The analysis of the researched scientific problems on counteraction to crimes, committed by organized groups and criminal organizations, which are formed on an ethnic basis, now necessitates further research of ethnic crime in Ukraine and the world in general. Formation by the Ukrainian state of a multi-vector mechanism of counteraction to organized groups and criminal organizations, formed on an ethnic basis, is impossible without understanding the essence of this problem, relevant legal concepts and classification and identification of features of organized ethnic crime that are important for law enforcement and the state. The main effective factor in such activities is to guarantee the security of citizens and the integrity of the state from criminal encroachments of organized groups and criminal organizations that are formed on an ethnic basis. Thus, for the effective interaction of law enforcement agencies in combating crimes, committed by organized groups and criminal organizations that are formed on an ethnic basis, a sound concept of such cooperation is needed, which is currently lacking. Accordingly, in the long run, such a concept needs to be adopted immediately, which will start streamlining law enforcement relations on the exchange and realization of information concerning the activities of both domestic criminal groups and organized criminal groups of foreign nationals or those formed on ethnic grounds. Theoretical principles of law enforcement interaction in combating crimes, committed by organized groups and criminal organizations, which are formed on an ethnic basis by generalizing, analyzing and systematizing the concept of interaction, its forms, methods and types, are analyzed. An author's definition of the concept of interaction among police during counteraction to crimes, committed by organized groups and criminal organizations, formed on ethnic basi, is given
