CyberSouth project organised a regional online workshop on interagency cooperation on the search, seizure and confiscation of on-line crime proceeds, on the 1st of July 2020. The event gathered around 30 participants from Law Enforcement agencies, Financial Investigation Units and prosecutors of priority countries as well as experts from United Kingdom, Romania and FBI.
The aim of the workshop was to assist authorities of the project countries to increase their knowledge on fighting against cybercrime and targeting on-line crime proceeds.
The outcome of this workshop will allow priority countries to get acquainted with the global cybercrime landscape and challenges related to on-line crime proceeds, to identify and make use of their national legislation and tools for interagency cooperation to search, seize and confiscate on-line crime proceeds.
Follow up support will be provided by the Council of Europe in the form of recommendations to the project countries for strengthening of their capacities to conduct financial investigation and target on-line crime proceeds.
