Investigation against cybercrimes is reinforced by letting police officers, including


those in police stations, develop investigative skills through various educational
programs.

(2)

Appropriate response to complaints and promoting awareness

Based on the analysis of the situation on cybercrimes, including increasing online fraud
using credit card numbers of other people and online complaints, there must be
cooperation with business entities on adapting security equipments, including 3D-secure.
(3)
