The world is currently witnessing a technological revolution in the field of information systems and the Internet, the benefits of which have been reaped by humans by facilitating the means of life in various fields. However, this electronic globalization has brought within it new forms of information crimes, including the crime of electronic hacking. Penetration crimes of any website, electronic information system, information network, or information technology means have increased, which is considered a development in advanced criminal methods using modern technology, due to criminals penetrating this information and programs, accessing them, and attacking their content, whether by changing them, or Damaging or stealing it, and the matter becomes more dangerous in the case of electronic hacking on the information systems of state institutions. Therefore, the UAE criminal legislature - like other modern legislation - worked to protect private data and information, as well as those that affect the state's internal and external security, preserved in the information system, networks, and websites, by criminalizing the hacking of websites, whether this hacking occurred on any website or electronic information system. Or an information network or an information technology means, as well as the crime of hacking into the information systems of state institutions, due to the seriousness and importance of the information that contains state secrets, and the majority of modern penal legislation has considered this crime to be one of the crimes that affect the security of the state, especially if this crime evolves from accessing data and information to trading in it.
