FCCU
FCCU stands for Federal Computer Crime Unit. We are part of the Central Directorate of Combating Serious and Organized Crime and we continue to fight against ICT crime.
Specialized in the investigation of computer and telecommunication systems, the CCU is concludes two levels.
- The RCCU (Regional Computer Crime Unit) within each judicial directorate in the districts under the leadership of the judicial directors.
- The FCCU (Federal Computer Crime Unit), which is at the national level within the central directorate of the fight against serious and organized crime.
We believe that the organization and operation of the CCUs at federal and regional level should guarantee the following:
- Provide effective and timely assistance to the police in the judicial archives in order to detect all relevant information in the ICT environment, protect the information and provide it to investigators in a clear and comprehensible manner.
- Through specialization, prevention, active and passive intervention, we can combat various forms of ICT crime effectively, so that the negative impact of this form of crime on social life is as small as possible. Throughout Belgium, the services provided must be of impeccable quality and technically and procedurally equivalent.
The FCCU consists of 3 departments:
- The first department is the team "R&D". They are responsible for building expertise in certain high tech topics such as cryptocurrencies and the Dark web.
- The next department is "operations". These provide specialized support to the central operational investigation services and to the RCCU. This support is mainly investigation of ICT systems within the framework of "traditional" crime. In addition, they assist the RCCUs in dealing with computer crime and telecommunications fraud.
- Finally, we have the "intelligence" department. They take care of the information management and the image of computer crime.
REMINDER: Info can be outdated, but we will make sure to update the info when we have more.
