SW Regional Cyber Crime Unit

Welcome to the official LinkedIn page of the South West Regional Cyber Crime Unit. We are responsible for leading investigations into complex cyber dependent crimes impacting organisations in the South West region, such as large-scale computer and network intrusions, denial of service attacks, ransomware, and malware development. Operating as part of the Regional Organised Crime Unit (ROCU), we work in collaboration with the five forces in the region - Avon and Somerset, Devon and Cornwall, Dorset, Gloucestershire and Wiltshire. An integral part of our work lies in providing cyber security advice, messaging and guidance to organisations of all sizes and sectors. Guidance is based on the very latest cyber threat intelligence from the National Cyber Security Centre and our own investigations. To find out more, visit https://www.rocu.police.uk/capabilities/cyber-crime/, and follow us on Twitter at @swrccu. Please do NOT use this page to report crime. We cannot accept reports, and the page is not monitored 24/7. If you are a business, charity or other organisation which is suffering a LIVE cyber-attack, please call Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040. If you are a member of the public you can report fraud or cybercrime at any time using the Action Fraud online reporting tool at www.actionfraud.police.uk or by calling 0300 123 2040 between 0800 and 2000 hrs Mon-Fri.
