The National Coordination Service for the fight against the
computer crimes (SCOCI) is the reference office for people who mean
to communicate the presence of particular web-site on Internet.
After a first examination and after having guaranteed the data
security,
this communications are transmitted to the national and
international enquiring authorities. Moreover SCOCI carries
actively out searches in the net in order to characterize web-site
with forbidden contents and takes care also of deepening the
analyses in the within of Internet crimes. Among the Internet
contents of penal importance we consider in
particular:
- hard pornography
- estremism
- racism
- illegal access to computer systems
- diffusion of computer viruses
- data damage
- abuse of credit cards
- violation of the copyrights
- illegal commerce of weapons
Organization
Starting from 2003 the National
Coordination Service supports The Confederation and the cantons in
three different sectors:
- Monitoring
- Searches in Internet to characterize penal abuses and first
elaboration of suspicious communications.
- Clearing
- Legal examination of the penal importance of the received
suspicious communications, coordination with procedures and
transmission of the technical investigations to the competent
national or international authorities depending on territory or
subject.
- Analisi
- At national level concerning Internet crimes are: the permanent
analysis of the situation in Switzerland, the study of crime
modalities and instruments, the elaboration of statistics and
trends.
Fight against the computer crimes
During 2004, the Coordination Service has received in average
beyond 500 calls per month; these communications were carried out
through its SCOCI web-site on Internet (www.scoci.ch,
www.cybercrime.ch). Among them, beyond one out of five regard hard
pornography. Concerning the other calls, they are mainly Spam-mail,
soft pornography, teen modeling, trial of swindle, offensive racial
contents and violations of the copyright. Through Interpol, it has
been possible to transmit altogether 171 dossiers to 20
States.
Monitoring and active search
SCOCI also demonstrated to be very active in the search of
forbidden contents on Internet. The priority topic is essentially
the spread of the child-pornography. Last year, similar independent
searches carried out mainly on web-sites for file exchange (peer to
peer) or acting to monitoring chats and forums, have produced
beyond 450 dossier, 95% of which regarding cases of
child-pornography. From March 2004, SCOCI tries systematically to
obtain, from the police enforcements and the judicial authorities,
information concerning the ulterior treatment of the dossiers. In
our statistical data, 78% of cases have produced searchs,
concurring to the seizure of important amounts of penal material.
For what concerns sentences, the endorsements are between 200 Swiss
franks and a jail sentence of two months.
