The Cyber-Crime Convention aims to harmonize national laws on cybercrime and to establish a common framework to fight against such criminal activities. As TTL's activity involves unauthorized access to a competitor's computer system with the intent to disrupt and destroy business, it falls under the category of cybercrime. The convention provides mechanisms for extradition, international cooperation, and assistance in investigations and prosecutions in cases of cybercrime.
