Official Journal developed by the relevant authorities and will be put into action in a relatively short time. This document will define the methods for combating cybercrime in the cyberspace and will provide more adequate tools for this fight. Cybersecurity legal framework A comprehensive national approach to cybersecurity cannot be achieved through the use of technologies and services alone, and it should be accompanied by a proper and current legal framework focusing on the dynamic nature of the ICT space and the evolving nature of cyberthreats. Various national and international structures have organized awareness-raising campaigns for various stakeholders on protecting from threats resulting from cybercrime and other attacks against internet safety. A legal and regulatory framework protecting from various forms of electronic crime and abuse is fundamental to the establishment of a reliable environment for electronic communication and transactions. The main laws related to cybercrime are the following: Law No. 7895, dated 27.1.1995, “Criminal Code of the Republic of Albania”, as amended; Law No. 2/2017, “On cybersecurity”; - Law No. 9918 dated 19.5.2014, “On Electronic Communications in the Republic of Albania”, as amended; Law No. 9887, dated 10.3.2008, “On Personal Data Protection”, as amended; - Law No. 8457, dated 11.2.1999, “On Classified Information”, as amended; Law No. 9880, dated 25.02.2008 “On the Electronic Signature”, as amended; - Law No. 107 dated 15.10.2015, “On Electronic Identification and Trusted Services,” as amended. Regarding the above, legislation in the cybersecurity field should be harmonized with EU legislation, thus creating a complete and codified mechanism to adequately address and resolve issues. Besides, where possible, international internet security mechanisms should be accessed, signed, ratified, and implemented, Year 2021 - Issue 7 including the allocation of sufficient resources based on national priorities and considering technological developments and applying the neutral technology principles. Safe internet for children The increasing use of the internet by children is the greatest issue regarding their online safety, not only in Albania. Child online safety is one of the priorities for Albania and all institutions focusing on this issue in their activity. In 2018-2019, the government’s main and strategic partner in child protection and rights, UNICEF Albania conducted a study on “Children’s experiences of internet use in Albania”79, which surveyed 1000 children between the ages of 9 and 18 and their parents, and its preliminary results found the following: Surveyed children accessed the internet for the first time at 9 years of age, with 37% stating that they used the internet at 8 years of age or even earlier. 51% of children interviewed have permanent access to the internet (whenever they wish). In general, children interviewed use the internet more and have more online technological skills than their parents. This creates an obstacle for parents in effectively overseeing child experiences on the internet, not only as regards controlling access but also to help children in developing a critical judgment of their online experiences and content. The study found that during their time online, children have had upsetting situations. Namely, 14% of children interviewed have had upsetting experiences online, especially those between 15 and 17 years of age. 1 in 10 children reported at least one unwanted sexual experience through the internet. The statistics of this research show that children are exposed to harmful content online, such as images of violence or abuse (1 in 5 children), 79 The “Children’s experiences of internet use in Albania” will be published in 2019 by UNICEF Albania. Its preliminary findings were presented in the “VIRAL” Summit, organized by UNICEF Albania in November 2018: https://www.unicef.org/albania/viral-summitbetter-Internet-children-and-adolescents-albania Page|1489
