About this service
Cybercrime constitutes a separate chapter of the Criminal Code of Georgia and covers the full spectrum of conduct connected with computer systems and data: from unauthorised intrusion, through the manufacture and distribution of intrusion tools, data infringement and infringement for the purpose of financial gain, to the creation of false official computer data. This page reviews the chapter and describes the defence accents characteristic of each group of these offences. The definitional framework also matters: a computer system is any device or group of devices that automatically processes data by means of a program — a personal computer, any device with a microprocessor, or a mobile telephone; and unauthorised means both unlawful conduct and the case where the holder of the right has not directly or indirectly transferred the right to the person committing the act.
