NCCU Operations

The NCCU Operations team leads the NCA’s response to target the top echelon of cyber criminals involved in sophisticated and high profile forms of cyber crime. Crime types typically include sophisticated network intrusions, the creation and distribution of malicious software and Denial of Service attacks

Operational activity is generated through a coordinated, intelligence led approach to dealing with cyber dependent crime; it is focused on the key cyber threats impacting on the UK, and tackling offenders and risks to the public which are beyond the capability or capacity of other law enforcement partners.

With specialised and dedicated training, our cyber investigators engage with UK and international law enforcement and industry partners to investigate cyber dependent crime at the most serious level. Using innovative technical and traditional methods of policing our teams of cyber experts work closely with intelligence officers and digital forensics specialists to secure evidence and build powerful cases to a judicial outcome.
