This video is part of: Centre for Cybersecurity

Cybercrime has become incredibly profitable. Criminals exploit the anonymity and cross-border nature of cyberspace, making it difficult for law enforcement to track and prosecute them.

The professionalization of cybercrime has led to a new trend: cybercrime as a service. Hackers now buy tools like ransomware from developers, turning criminal activities into an organized industry.

This shift is drawing talented professionals who might otherwise work in legitimate tech sectors. The fight against cybercrime requires a collaborative effort from governments, businesses, and technology providers to prevent skilled individuals from being lured to the dark side.
