The Nigeria Police Force has reaffirmed its commitment to strengthening institutional capacity in the fight against cybercrime and promoting a safer digital ecosystem. This was demonstrated through the active participation of the Nigeria Police Force – National Cybercrime Centre (NPF-NCCC) in the Meta Two-Day Summit on Online Safety, themed “The Future of Online Safety: Combating Evolving Threats,” held recently in Abuja.
The summit brought together law enforcement agencies, policymakers, and technology partners to foster collaboration and develop innovative approaches to tackling the ever-evolving nature of cyber threats and digital crimes.
Through their engagement, officers of NPF-NCCC, who represented the Nigeria Police Force at the summit, enhanced their knowledge and technical expertise in understanding the structure of digital criminal enterprises, the dynamics of cross-border online fraud, the use of intelligence-led investigations, digital forensics, and Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) in uncovering and dismantling organized cybercrime networks.
The sessions further deepened inter-agency collaboration, emphasizing the importance of partnerships between the Police, technology companies, and civil society organizations in promoting online safety, digital trust, and responsible use of technology.
