In light of the unprecedented expansion of modern communication and information technologies, cybercrime has become one of the most complex and transnational challenges facing international criminal law. This research aims to explain and analyze the role of the United Nations in developing international standards to combat cybercrime by examining a collection of binding and non-binding documents, General Assembly resolutions, and specifically the Convention on Combating Cybercrime (Resolution A/RES/74/247). The research method is based on library study and comparative analysis of international documents, conventions, and regulations. The research findings indicate that the United Nations' role has thus far remained primarily at the level of developing guiding documents and recommendations, and the aforementioned Convention also faces shortcomings in the areas of criminalization of offenses, precise determination of jurisdiction, and provision of effective implementation mechanisms. The most significant achievement of the United Nations in the process of standardizing cybercrime can be seen in the adoption and signing of the "United Nations Convention on Combating Cybercrime" (Hanoi Treaty). This important international instrument is designed around three fundamental axes: first, the unification of rules and ending the phenomenon of "escape from the law"; second, creating a fundamental transformation in judicial cooperation with an emphasis on speed instead of time-consuming bureaucracies; and third, reducing the technological gap and realizing justice for developing countries. This article endeavors, while analyzing the UN's role in regulating international standards to combat cybercrime through the examination of existing documents, to also critique and evaluate the aforementioned global treaty.
