Our intention in this study is to emphasise a few aspects relating to the need to support cyber education and to preventive goals, by informing people about the strategies in place at Union and/or national level, which reflect current realities, in relation to which each person, active entities and, last but not least, the authorities will have to act so as to identify early on any possible risks. We have also aimed to identify legislation that criminalises acts of cyber fraud, in which respect we have referred to certain articles in the criminal codes of several European countries. We consider that cyber education and legal education, regardless of the social level one belongs to, the social roles one takes on at a given time, and/or of age, are essential to setting the foundations for a cyber security culture.
