Interpol is calling for a global crackdown on cybercrime, with better legislation to support efforts to tackle web criminals.

 

Software giant Microsoft has joined the call for greater international police powers to fight internet criminals and better funding to tackle cybercrime. The company has unveiled a global law enforcement campaign against phishing attacks.

 

Politicians and police forces need to educate themselves about the tactics used by criminals to steal money over the internet.

 

With phishing and pharming, new technologies are being dealt with by old laws. We need an integrated legal framework to exchange data.
