Combating cyber crime is a core part of the National Cyber Security Strategy,
which is underpinned by the National Cyber Security Programme (NCSP) with £860
million of new investment over five years. The NCSP funds a range of work to
tackle cyber crime, including strengthening law enforcement capabilities with
the establishment of the National Cyber Crime Unit in the National Crime
Agency, and cyber teams within each of the Regional Organised Crime Units
(ROCUs) across England and Wales, as well as developing the capability of local
police forces. It also funds the Cyber Streetwise campaign, and the Action
Fraud reporting system for cyber crime that is run by City of London Police.
