Subject The article focuses on issues of the exposure of IT infrastructure to cyber attacks as the global community sees an increasing number of cybercrimes. Objectives The study analyzes and systematized major cyber attacks, which have taken place recently, chronologically. We classify cybercrimes and their consequences, define new recommendations for preventing cybercrimes and improving the cybersecurity level during the global digitization. Methods Research is based on methods of a systems analysis, comparative, structural and logic analysis, econometric analysis, content-analysis, mass media, economic-statistical methods and modeling. Results We arranged major cybersecurity attacks chronologically, classified cybercrimes and their consequences. The article provides the main recommendations for improving the cybersecurity level during the global digitization. Conclusions and Relevance We reviewed key concepts, described forms and types of cyber attacks and focus on global ones. The article also analyzes key triggers of cybercrimes and gives specific recommendations for preventing them.
