As technology becomes part of the academic system, a phenomenon called cyberplagiarism arises due to the lack of honesty of students and, above all, due to the lack of knowledge of how serious it is to commit it. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that research is consistent for the benefit of the university community. In this way, the university's efforts must be focused on correcting this misconduct. This review of the academic literature had the purpose of describing and substantiating the bad practices of cyberplagiarism incurred by university students and focuses on the documentary collection of twenty-four articles from indexed journals. The search results show three main components: the causes of cyberplagiarism, the consequences of engaging in these dishonest practices and, finally, the strategies that, as the authors point out, the university community should follow to counteract these bad practices.

Keywords : Cyber plagiarism; Academic dishonesty; Academic fraud; Academic plagiarism.
