Summary/Abstract: The article discusses the problem of grooming as one of the greatest threats to the constantly developing ICT technologies. The motives and methods of action of potential perpetrators of this crime were presented. The consideration of this phenomenon began with a legal and dogmatic analysis, starting from the global approach, through local international law, and ending with legal regulations and the manner of its penalization in Poland. Leaving aside the legal interpretation, the socially undesirable behavior associated with it has been placed on the grounds of social security, and more precisely among social pathologies, of which grooming undoubtedly seems to be a manifestation. The available prevention of cyber threats was also described, with grooming at the front, and the effectiveness of the preventive program treated on a systemic basis was shown on the example of Malopolska Region.
