To effectively combat computer-related crime, it is important to take into account foreign experience of combating computer crime, especially by criminal law means. This article provides a comparative legal analysis of the criminal legislation of a number of European Union countries in order to identify common and distinctive features of criminal liability for unauthorized access to computer information. The main approaches of European legislators to the criminalization of this type of socially dangerous act are identified. We note the inconsistency of European criminal law and the need to harmonize approaches to the criminalization of unauthorized access to computer information.
