Abstract: This article examines the profile of individuals involved in cybercrime activities, focusing on their psychological traits, motivations and technical skills. The study identifies common typologies of cybercriminals, ranging from individual hackers to organized groups, and examines the factors that contribute to choosing this type of illegal activity, such as social influences and opportunities in the online environment. The research hypothesis argues that individuals who commit cybercrime exhibit distinct characteristics that vary according to their goals and resources. The research method used combines case analysis with interviews and comparative studies, highlighting the diversity of profiles and the adaptability of offenders to emerging technologies. The results provide useful insights for implementing preventive measures and streamlining cybercrime investigations.
