About Cybercrime in European Union

Summary/Abstract: Given that there is an important value in addressing the EU's fight against cybercrime in an area of justice, freedom and security, it should be stressed that the Council of Europe's Treaty on the fight against cybercrime is of considerable value. It is much more comprehensive than the EU Framework Decision and has the additional merit of being open to any country in the world interested in participation - a unique feature within the Council of Europe's instruments. Ratification includes Framework Decision no. 82 of the Annex to the Communication from the European Commission to the European Parliament and the European Council on the Implications of the European Court of Justice's judgment of 13 September 2005 in case C 176/03 COM (2005) 583 final The United States of the Treaty paves the way for a much wider, global, common to fight cybercrime.
