In this interview at SINCON 2024, Dr. Joshua James, a Regional Counter Cyber Crime Coordinator for the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), shared his insights on the Regional Counter-cybercrime programme at UNODC.

Dr. James argued that while law enforcement agencies are getting better at responding to cybercrime, the cyber criminals are also getting better at what they do. This is because cybercrime is a business for them, and they invest heavily in security measures to protect their operations.

He believes that the key to defeating cybercrime is for governments to see their citizens as assets rather than liabilities. If people are viewed as assets, then more will be invested in educating them and giving them the tools they need to protect themselves online.

He also said that international cooperation is essential in the fight against cybercrime. The current system for international cooperation, called mutual legal assistance, was created before the internet and is not effective for cybercrime. New tools and methods for international cooperation are needed.

In conclusion, Dr. James said that he is confident that cybercrime can be defeated, but it will take a lot of work from governments and citizens alike.
