BELINOTTE, Mariana Grilli; GOLDONI, Luiz Rogério Franco; DEVANNY, Joe  and  COELHO, Carlos Frederico. Order and progress? An analysis of Brazilian responses to cybercrime. Relações Internacionais [online]. 2024, n.82, pp.93-107.  Epub July 30, 2024. ISSN 1645-9199.  https://doi.org/10.23906/ri2024.82a07.

The cyber threat has become an increasingly important issue in recent years. Although the problem is global, it affects some countries more than others. This is the case in Brazil, which has become a focal point for cyber attacks. The main goal of this article is to analyze the Brazilian state’s responses to high-profile cybercrimes. The article provides a contextual overview of how significant incidents have shaped Brazil’s legislative response to cybercrime, particularly in the General Data Protection Law and the Carolina Dieckmann Law. It contributes to a research agenda focused on analyzing how and why some activities are criminalized while others are not, and also helps to understand the priorities and perceptions of different states.

Keywords : cybercrime; General Data Protection Law; Carolina Dieckmann Law; Brazil.
