Based on some statistical indicators in this area, we can have (in particular for Ukraine) a positive dynamic for decreasing a number of attack-sources, but this fact is not to use for Russia, Germany, the USA, and some others countries in the world. At the same, the worldwide tendency has a negative dynamic of increasing of an average numbers of cybercrimes.

At the same time, much government structures (tax, antimonopoly, law enforcement authorities, etc.) are receiving the significant information volume from some different organizations or personnel’s when they are performing of their general functions. It is contributing to form some different mechanisms of cybercrimes.
According on an opinion of some authors, the visible Internet is about 20-30% from all content in the Internet. Thus, can approve the invisible Internet is main part from all resources, which are accessible in on-line mode.

However, only new lows are not capable to a growth of IT-offenses. For this is need a complex of measures, which are targeted not only to development of law enforcement base, but and to increase of the level of literacy of citizens and judicial and law enforcement.
