Description: Juvenile delinquency in cybersecurity refers to illegal activities carried out by minors that threaten cybersecurity. This phenomenon has grown alongside technological advancements and increased internet access, allowing young people to engage in criminal activities ranging from hacking to cyberbullying. The ease of access to digital tools and the lack of adequate supervision have contributed to many adolescents being drawn to the world of cybercrime. Juvenile delinquency in this area not only affects direct victims but also has repercussions on the security of networks and computer systems globally. Furthermore, the social perception of these crimes can be ambivalent, as some young people may view their actions as a form of challenge or rebellion, without fully understanding the legal and ethical consequences of their actions. Education in cybersecurity and the promotion of responsible technology use are essential to mitigate this issue, as well as the implementation of policies that effectively address juvenile delinquency in the digital environment.
