Abstract
This scientific work is a continuation of a previously published scientific article: if the first part of the study revealed the concept and criminological characteristics of digital crime, then the second part of the work is devoted more to the prevention of digital crime. The analysis of such a concept as a crime committed using information (digital) technologies shows that in the scientific literature there are different points of view regarding the content of this concept, however, each of the definitions is more or less based on the norms of current legislation in the field of information. The key purpose of this scientific research and the tasks arising from this goal are formulated as the disclosure of the definition of digital crime, the description of its types and the presentation of common positions on the issue of digital crime prevention. The research methodology is based on the use of general scientific and private scientific methods of cognition, in particular, the method of induction, deduction, generalization, analysis, research of official information sources, the method of expert assessments, etc. The resolution of the issue of the pre-vention of such crimes is of the greatest practical importance. The largest amount of authority in the fight against digital crimes is vested in specialized subjects of the prevention of digital crimes. However, only all actors together can ensure the systematic implementation of all prevention measures. In the fight against digital crimes, the subjects of prevention must act together and build an effective mechanism for interaction and exchange of necessary information. Countering the crimes in question includes a full range of operational and technical, search, operational and investigative measures, including explanatory and preventive means of general and individual prevention of offenses, which are provided for by current legislation.
