The CyberSouth and GLACY+ projects have organised a workshop on the functioning and role of 24/7 Networks of Contact Points in the international cooperation on cybercrime and e-evidence, together with INTERPOL. Approximately 170 participants, representing criminal justice authorities (investigators, prosecutors, judges and representatives from the central authority of mutual legal assistance) from the priority countries of the C-PROC’s GLACY+, CyberSouth, CyberEast, and iPROCEEDS-2 projects attended this workshop.
The goal of the meeting was to introduce the current international cooperation legal framework and instruments that are available to the cybercrime investigation units, with reference to the mutual legal assistance process, police-to-police cooperation as well as public-private cooperation.
CyberSouth is a joint project of the European Union and the Council of Europe. It contributes to the prevention and control of cybercrime and other offences involving electronic evidence in the region of the Southern Neighbourhood, in line with international human rights and rule of law standards and good practices.
