Summary/Abstract: The study examines the evolution of cyber security, cybercrime and the legal framework that governs these areas, focusing on the historical development of technology and threats in cyberspace. Beginning with the early years of mainframe systems and the ARPANET, through the development of TCP/IP protocols and the WWW, the study traces the evolution of the technologies that shape modern digital infrastructure. The initial cybercrimes and their transition to more sophisticated attacks such as DDoS, ransomware and social engineering are also examined. Particular attention is paid to major cyber incidents, such as Stuxnet and SolarWinds, as well as state-sponsored attacks on critical infrastructure. The study includes an analysis of international and European legal regulations, such as the Budapest Convention and the NIS and NIS2 directives, which establish a framework for protection against cyber threats. Based on current trends and case studies, future challenges and the need to improve cyber defence mechanisms are discussed.
