The Octopus Project is a Council of Europe project based on voluntary contributions from States Parties and Observers to the Convention on Cybercrime and other public and private sector organisations, aiming to support the implementation of the Convention on Cybercrime (Budapest Convention), its Protocols and related standards, as well as to address additional challenges that came to the forefront in the course of 2020. 

The Council of Europe gratefully acknowledges the contributions of France to the Octopus Project. 

The project is open to voluntary contributions. Consult the Octopus Project leaflet here (version March 2026).
