Daniel Sykes, the Cyber Crime Unit Protect and Prepare Officer at Surrey and Sussex Police, has been in touch with Michael again to update him on the hard work taking place to tackle Cyber Crime locally.
The Cyber Crime Unit has launched an ambitious webinar project, offering two monthly webinars to residents, all focused on Cyber Security and Online Safety.
You can find details of upcoming webinars via the following link, and registration is absolutely FREE.

Over 50% of all reported crime is fraud related and over 80% of that is facilitated using digital technology. The aim of these webinars is to significantly reduce the chances of local communities falling victim to Cyber Crime.
The Cyber Crime Unit is working on expanding these webinars too, with a planned monthly webinar on Online Safety for Women and Girls, as well as one for businesses. Any further information on this will be provided in due course.
Michael commented:
“This is a fantastic offer from the Cyber Crime Unit, and a great opportunity for my constituents to boost their cyber security knowledge. I am very grateful to Daniel Sykes, and to the team at the Cyber Crime Unit, for all their hard work to tackle this issue, which can have a profound impact on victims.”
