The London Police and Kaspersky Lab are ahead of the fight against fraud

Kaspersky Lab unites its forces with the City of London Police to train police forces and businesses all over the UK on how to tackle digital crime.

Digital crime accounts for a fairly large percentage of incidents ς που σημειώνονται σήμερα, με επτά στις δέκα απάτες να σχετίζονται με το Δια, σύμφωνα με το National Fraud Intelligence Bureau της Βρετανίας. Ωστόσο, η περίπλοκη και άγνωστη στο ευρύ κοινό φύση αυτών των εγκλημάτων, δημιουργεί προβλήματα τόσο στην αντιμετώπιση, όσο και στον εντοπισμό και την κατανόηση τους.

To tackle the rise in digital crime, London City Police has called for Kaspersky Lab specialists to help train police officers from every level on ever-increasing online threats. This innovative curriculum - the first of its kind for the UK prosecution authorities - will provide the necessary skills and knowledge to identify and deal with online crimes - from cheating an individual victim during an online purchase to the targeted business against a loss-making thousands of pounds.

Το πρόγραμμα θα επεκταθεί σε περισσότερες υπηρεσίες και σε μεγάλες επιχειρήσεις στο Ηνωμένο Βασίλειο, με στόχο την αναβάθμιση των δυνατοτήτων αυτοπροστασίας τους από ψηφιακές επιθέσεις. Συνδυάζοντας τη θεωρητική γνώση με την πράξη, το πρόγραμμα εκπαίδευσης, το οποίο διαρκεί μία εβδομάδα, προσφέρει απτή εμπειρία και συμβάλλει στην ανάπτυξη σημαντικών δεξιοτήτων, όπως η παρακολούθηση της κίνησης στο δίκτυο, η hard disk images and the decomposition of malware . In this context, the trainees will use specialized training tools and a special methodology developed by Kaspersky Lab. During the training, the need to improve the reporting process of fraud incidents by businesses will also be highlighted to ensure that the police and security services can have a clear picture of the issue.

The first program was successfully completed by the National Fraud Intelligence Bureau in February of 2014. The training program focuses on threats against financial institutions and government agencies, which are also the leading e-fraud targets in the UK. However, the skills acquired by the participants can also be used to combat the digital threats that the public may face.

"As the complexity of digital crime is steadily increasing, it is imperative that the knowledge of the service on these threats grows at the same pace," said David Clark, Head of the Financial Crime Division at the City of London Police. "With over 21.000 digital crimes being recorded in the UK during the first quarter of 2014, it is clear that simple users and businesses are at risk and need protection. The UK police must be prepared to recognize these crimes and have the necessary knowledge to face them face-to-face. The collaboration with Kaspersky Lab further underlines our role as a national police force against financial crime and will strengthen our capabilities to combat digital fraud and digital crime nationwide, "he added.

«Αποτελεί τιμή για την Kaspersky Lab να αξιοποιήσει αυτή την ευκαιρία και να μοιραστεί με την Αστυνομία της Πόλης του Λονδίνου την εκτενή γνώση, την πληροφόρηση και τις προβλέψεις της σχετικά με την ψηφιακή ασφάλεια», σχολίασε ο Veniamin Levtsov, Vice-President, Corporate Sales and Business της Kaspersky Lab. «Εδώ και 17 χρόνια, έχουμε αναπτύξει μια σειρά από δυναμικές τεχνικές λήψης δεδομένων και διερεύνησης ψηφιακών εγκλημάτων, οι οποίες θα αποτελέσουν πολύτιμο εργαλείο για τις διωκτικές αρχές του Ηνωμένου Βασιλείου», συμπλήρωσε.
