The Cyber Crime Division of the Central Criminal Police Department at the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Georgia was established by the decree of the Minister of the Interior in December 2012. Currently, there are 15 detective-investigators within the Division who are responsible for investigation of cybercrime. The Division is competent to investigate cybercrime offences in narrow sense, in particular crimes provided for in Chapter 15 (Cybercrime) of the Criminal Code of Georgia; however, the Division also provides advice, guidance and technical assistance to other police units across Georgia in the investigation of cybercrime and the handling of electronic evidence. The forensics team of the Ministry of the Interior handles the forensic examination duties.
The 24/7 National Contact Point is operating at the Cyber Crime Division of the Central Criminal Police Department at the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Georgia.
Since 2010, a Memorandum of cooperation between Internet Service Providers and Law Enforcement Agencies is in force. Ten largest ISPs representing the majority of the Internet industry and the representatives of government agencies, such as Prosecution Service and the Ministry of the Interior, signed the memorandum in January 2010. The Memorandum defines the principles of cooperation between ISPs and law enforcement agencies in the process of investigation of cybercrime and specifies the rights as well as responsibilities of the parties to the memorandum. Among the most important achievements under the document is the creation of specialized contact points within the structure of ISPs and the law enforcement, and significant reduction of time for processing of law enforcement requests.
