As a direct result of the NCA’s coordinated international day of action, involving law enforcement and industry partners, the infrastructure for the Shylock malware variant has been almost totally dismantled. The theft of online banking credentials as a result of Shylock has significantly reduced.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/09/2014 answer text <p> </p><p>Neither the Crown Prosecution Service nor the Serious Fraud Office centrally record the number of prosecutions initiated, or those which resulted in a successful outcome, relating to cyber or cyber-enabled crime. A number of offences may involve the use of a computer or a network in the commission of the offence. To obtain details of the number of cases where defendants were alleged to have been involved in cyber or cyber-enabled crimes would require a manual review of individual case files to be undertaken which would incur a disproportionate cost.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency South Swindon answering member printed Mr Robert Buckland question first answered 08/09/2014 13:09:50 answering member 4106 label Biography information for Sir Robert Buckland

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/07/2014 answer text <p> </p><p> </p><p>Combating cyber crime is a core part of the National Cyber Security Strategy, <br>which is underpinned by the National Cyber Security Programme (NCSP) and £860 <br>million of investment over five years. The Government has so far committed £70 <br>million of NCSP funding to build law enforcement capabilities to tackle cyber <br>crime. This includes the establishment of the National Cyber Crime Unit in the <br>National Crime Agency (NCA), and cyber teams within each of the Regional <br>Organised Crime Units across England and Wales. <br><br>Almost every cyber crime investigation has an international element and as a <br>result the NCA has prioritised building partnerships with key international <br>partners to better tackle this common cyber threat. To this end, and as a <br>result of NCSP investment, the NCA has deployed a number of International <br>Liaison Officers overseas. The NCA, EU and other international partners (US, <br>New Zealand, Australia and Canada) have agreed common threats and goals which <br>are informing the development of a model for proactive global joint cyber <br>investigations. An example of this approach is the recent US-led investigation <br>into a serious malware threat which saw the UK, under Project TOVAR, play a key <br>role in the disruption of criminal infrastructure and prevention messaging to <br>UK to businesses and the public. Project DISPUTED is an NCA-led investigation <br>which targets the Shylock malware variant, a sophisticated system employed by <br>criminals to steal online banking credentials, targeting the UK banking sector <br>in particular. This is the first project of its kind for a UK law enforcement <br>agency and involves the NCA bringing together partners from across law <br>enforcementand the private sector, including the FBI, Europol and others.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Staffordshire Moorlands answering member printed Karen Bradley question first answered 21/07/2014 14:50:15 answering member 4110 label Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley
