Azerbaijan has officially signed the United Nations Convention against Cybercrime, joining many member states in a global effort to strengthen cooperation in the fight against cyber threats.
The signing took place during a formal ceremony in Hanoi, Vietnam. The event was attended by United Nations Secretary General António Guterres, Vietnamese President Luong Cuong, heads of delegations from different countries, international organisation representatives, and cybersecurity experts.
Colonel General Ali Nagiyev, Chief of the State Security Service, signed the Convention on behalf of Azerbaijan. This step followed the order issued by President Ilham Aliyev.

The Convention focuses on key goals. These include improving legal cooperation between states to address cybercrime, preventing the misuse of information and communication technologies, and building international systems for collecting and presenting electronic evidence.
