The specialised enforcement units.
The call for backup is a natural reaction to a cyber crime of this nature. It is not possible to train all the officers of the law enforcement agencies to deal with cyber crimes. That is why all over the world specialised units of laws enforcement agencies have been established to deal with sophisticated cyber crimes that are becoming more and more difficult to trace and curb.
There is a need of cooperation and coordination of these “specialised units” all over the world. It is an essential requirement that “Security seminars and workshops” should be organised on regular interval where all the “specialised units” of various countries participate and share their concerns and views. There is also a dire need of “extending assistance” if the violator and cyber criminal is hiding in the territories of a particular nation. These coordination and cooperation drives can help in easy and quick extradition of the culprit which otherwise remains a disgruntled reality.
