16. We note that, in the current period of globalization, information technology and the rapid development of new telecommunication and computer network systems have been accompanied by the abuse of those technologies for criminal purposes. We therefore welcome efforts to enhance and supplement existing cooperation to prevent, investigate and prosecute high-technology and computer-related crime, including through the development of partnerships with the private sector. We recognize the important contribution of the United Nations to regional and other international forums in the fight against cybercrime and invite the Commission on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice, taking into account that experience, to examine the feasibility of providing further assistance in that area under the aegis of the United Nations, in partnership with other similarly focused organizations.
16. 我们注意到在当前全球化时期，伴随着信息技术以及新的通信和计算机网络系统的飞速发展，出现了为犯罪目的滥用这些技术的现象。我们因此欢迎各种加强和补充现有合作以预防、侦查和起诉高技术犯罪和计算机犯罪的努力，包括通过发展与私营部门的伙伴关系而作出的努力。我们认识到联合国对各种区域及其他国际论坛在打击网络犯罪方面所作的重要贡献，请预防犯罪和刑事司法委员会考虑到这一经验，研究在联合国主持下与其他重点类似的组织合作在该领域提供进一步援助的可行性。
