Welcome to e-Crime Scotland

e-Crime Scotland has been developed through the auspices of the Scottish Financial Crime Group and working with key partners in the Scottish Business Crime Centre, Scottish Law Enforcement, Scottish Government and the wider business community who are all commited to equipping Scottish businesses with the knowledge and tools to be aware, vigilant, informed and ultimately safe from the destructive effects of e-crime in all its forms.

In today's ever evolving digital landscape e-crime can be notoriously difficult to detect partly because unseen attackers can strike at victims from hundreds or even thousands of miles away.
By bringing together the Scottish Crime & Drug Enforcement Agency, the eight Scottish police forces, specialist public sector organisations and expert commercial businesses, e-Crime Scotland shares and distributes the knowledge and intelligence vital for Scottish businesses to conduct business on line both safely and securely.

We hope this website will aid your understanding and appreciation of the wide range of online threats, how these threats could impact upon your business and the ways in which you can significantly reduce your business's exposure to risk online.
