This paper critically examines the effectiveness and limitations of U.S. cybercrime laws in safeguarding the digital trade space. As the global economy increasingly relies on digital platforms, cybercrime poses a significant threat to online business operations, intellectual property, and personal data security. The study explores the key components of U.S. legislation, such as the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA) and the Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act (CISA), assessing their scope, enforcement, and adaptability in responding to the ever-evolving nature of cyber threats. This critique highlights the gaps in current legal frameworks by analyzing case studies, legal challenges, and the intersection of cybercrime laws with international regulations. It offers recommendations for strengthening protections in the digital trade space. Ultimately, it seeks to provide insights into how U.S. policies can evolve to address the complexities of modern cyber threats better while balancing innovation, privacy, and global cooperation in digital commerce.
