Abstract
Technological developments have led to the emergence of new types of previously unknown crimes, especially cybercrime. The big world we knew has now become a small village, and this has caused crimes to cross geographical borders. Criminals have taken advantage of the opportunities created by technology and developed cybercrime, which differs from traditional crimes in terms of the skills of the perpetrators. Rapid growth, the desire to gain wealth, abundant opportunities to commit crime and the increase in organized crime are among the factors that have led to the spread of cybercrime and the increase in the number of victims. These factors threaten the security of data and the well-being of victims, which in turn requires the urgent attention of the International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL). Interpol, one of the most well-known organizations in the world, considers its main goal to be international cooperation to combat cybercrime, which is developing rapidly and cybercriminals are using the latest technological developments to make it more difficult to catch them. Using the staff and equipment at its disposal, Interpol has a significant ability to combat these crimes. The results of the study indicate that, Interpol considers the need for international cooperation, education and increasing public awareness about cyber threats essential and pursues improvements in strategies and technologies in order to create a safer cyber environment.
