With the development and evolution of the Internet, Cybercrimes have also increased at the international level. Cybercrimes in the cyber space are considered as an acute and very important problem in most countries of the world and governments are trying to find different solutions to prevent its occurrence. Currently, cybercrimes are committed in various forms, including: cyber fraud, cyber espionage, misuse of telephone networks, misuse of credit cards, intrusion into other computers, and money laundering. Crimes against the confidentiality of data and computer systems as crimes that invade the privacy of individuals and cause the loss of confidentiality of data and computer systems, can be examined in parallel with the design of domestic law in the realm of international documents.
