For several years now, the literature has been reporting an increase in aggression via the Internet among young people living in developed countries.Despite the financial and technical difficulties due to the situation in the country, young Congolese are also very open to ICTs and fun of all kinds of online applications that make them vulnerable to cyber-attacks.In this context, this study aims to examine the prevalence and factors affecting online aggression in Congolese academia.Indeed, with a field survey of 1500 students, we found that students who engage in high-risk online behaviors, such as sharing the Internet connection with others, posting content online, or dating virtual friends, are among those who have a higher probability of being victims and/or perpetrators of online assault.Based on the findings we formulated some recommendations that can help reduce the prevalence of cyberaggression.
