U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation Special Agents Conduct Cyber Crime
Training for Armenian Law Enforcement Officials at RA Police Academy Yerevan
During the week of May 14 through the 18th, three U.S. Federal Bureau of
Investigation Special Agents conducted a Computer (Cyber) Crime Training
Course at the Police Academy of the Republic of Armenia in Yerevan. The
attendees included eight officials from the National Security Service, five
from the RA Police and four from the National Bureau of Expertises.
The Computer (Cyber) Crime Training Course is designed by computer experts
to familiarize law enforcement officers with examples of common computer
crimes and investigative methods. The course will give the participants
instruction on how criminals can use computers to commit crimes, the risk of
"hackers" to computer networks, and how to trace the computer evidence that
criminals leave behind.
The course is funded by the International Narcotics and Law Enforcement
Affairs Office of the U.S. Embassy in Yerevan. U.S. Charge d'Affaires
Anthony Godfrey presented graduation certificates to the participants upon
completion of the course.
This project is only part of the U.S. Government's comprehensive law
enforcement assistance program in the Republic of Armenia. The U.S. Embassy
in Yerevan, through its International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Section,
has funded the renovation of such facilities as the National Bureau of
Expertises, the Police Induction Center in Kanaker, the Border Guards
Training Facility in Yerevan and the Customs House in Vanadzor. The Embassy
has donated computer equipment in all these facilities, as well as the
computer equipment in the Police Academy classroom where the cyber crime
training will take place.
The Embassy is also working with the Government of Armenia to establish a
nationwide, computerized border management information system and a
nationwide computer network for the RA Police. The U.S. Government provides
about $3 million a year in law enforcement assistance to Armenia to all
these facilities.
