<p>Cyber Security, including cyber crime, is a top priority threat to national security.
Through the National Cyber Security Programme (NCSP), we invested over £90 million
under the last Parliament to bolster the law enforcement response, and we are continuing
to invest. This Government has committed to transformative investment of £1.9 billion
on cyber security over the next five years, including for tackling cyber crime. This
year we have published a second five-year National Cyber Security Strategy and established
the National Cyber Security Centre which will act as a ‘one stop shop’ for national
cyber security.</p><p>Action Fraud, the national reporting point for fraud and financially-motivated
cyber crime, has guidance on its website about Romance Fraud, which can be found at:
http://www.actionfraud.police.uk/fraud-az-romance-scams The Government expects social
media companies and internet platforms to have robust processes in place and to act
promptly when abuse is reported. The Government continues to work closely with social
media companies and other relevant actors and experts to make sure they are committed
to protecting those who use their platforms.</p>
