The economic impact of cyber-crime rose fivefold from 2013 to 2017, and the European Commission believes it could rise by a factor of four by 2019. 87% of Europeans regard cyber-crime as an important challenge to the EU's internal security. The European Council has requested a legislative proposal to modernize the EU framework in this area, and a transatlantic agreement is also needed. However, the current state of the law causes confusion and mistrust This mistrust has a clear impact on law enforcement, data protection, and digital economy interests of Europe.
