Interpol and Europol will together launch a task force to improve the international fight against cyber crime and where law enforcement agencies from other countries can join. There will also be an alliance against abuse of digital currency to be set up by criminals.

These are two of the results of the Europol INTERPOL Cyber Crime Conference, which took place last week in The Hague.The Joint Cooperation & Compatibility Cyber Crime Taskforce Europol and Interpol will create a compatibility list to harmonize the different legal systems and codes for data requests. This should improve cooperation between different law enforcement agencies.

There will also be an alliance against abuse of digital currency for criminal transactions and money laundering. Particular attention was focused on policy, boosting operational cooperation and developing and providing training to combat the criminal use of digital currency. For example, law enforcement agencies empowered to detect digital currency of criminals, seize and confiscate.
