ENhanced AI-baSEd cybercriMe-oriented collaBorative investigation technologies and capabiLitiEs

Technological advancements create opportunities for sophisticated cybercrimes that, through innovative tactics and techniques, pose serious security and financial risks to the EU and beyond. The EU-funded ENSEMBLE project aims to combat cross-border cybercrime using advanced AI-based technology, multi-stakeholder investigation processes, training, and awareness. The project focuses on detecting and preventing ransomware, cyber fraud, data theft, extortion, unauthorised access, and crypto-jacking. It will develop an AI-based investigation toolbox to assist police authorities in detecting, extracting, processing, and analysing online information relevant to cybercrime activities. Additionally, it emphasises joint multi-stakeholder operations at both national and cross-border levels and will provide innovative training curricula and methods for police authorities, prosecutors, and judicial actors involved in these investigations.
