Summary/Abstract: This article presents arguments in favour of narrowing the scope of protection under Article 269c of the Criminal Code exclusively to persons searching for security vulnerabilities on their own initiative, provided that they act under simulated conditions. The article also points to the need to establish a coherent terminological framework for the specialized concepts appearing in Chapter XXXIII of the Criminal Code.
