Abstract : With the rapid evolution of computer systems and technologies, individuals face an increasing threat of cybercrime. This research explores the changing landscape of cybercrime by focusing on three key areas: malware analysis, phishing attack analysis, and sentiment analysis. The study aims to identify malware strategies for evading detection and analyze the prevalence of spyware by examining diverse malware samples. Additionally, trend analysis highlights the rising complexity and frequency of phishing attacks, with a notable shift toward targeting reputable platforms. Sentiment analysis of media headlines surrounding data breaches uncovers a paradox: while concerns about cybersecurity remain, there is a growing confidence in the ability to manage cybersecurity crises. These findings provide insights into emerging threats and evolving public perceptions, offering a comprehensive understanding of the current cyber- crime landscape.
