The world’s first cybercrime treaty is undergoing an update. When the Budapest Convention was drafted approximately 20 years ago, the treaty focused on harmonizing laws and increasing cooperation across borders so that a range of cybercrime, such as a denial of service attack or the release of a computer virus, could be prosecuted in the multiple countries affected. It was written before the exponential growth in Internet usage, the development of cloud computing, and the digitalization of just about every kind of interaction. These changes have made electronic evidence important to just about every crime—effectively turning almost all crime into cybercrime. And they have also created enormous challenges for law enforcement given, among other reasons, the global nature of the Internet. Increasingly, a range of electronic evidence relevant to and critical to the investigation and prosecution of crime – everything from basic subscriber information used to identify particular perpetrators to the content of emails – is stored in a different country from the one where the crime occurred or is being investigated. This globalization of criminal evidence is creating significant hurdles for law enforcement.[1]
