Analysis reveals motivations and traits of hackers, highlighting the need for updated legal regulations in technology.
The present research conducted an approach to the criminal profiling of cybercriminals, based on the analysis of criminal behavior and statistics of hackers. This descriptive and explanatory analysis, carried out through interviews, surveys, and data collection from cybercrime victims, news, and laws, examined various behaviors, patterns, and traits of hackers.
