RCMP National Cybercrime Coordination Unit (NC3)

As set out in the Government of Canada's National Cyber Security Strategy, and in line with the RCMP Cybercrime Strategy, the RCMP has established the National Cybercrime Coordination Unit (NC3). Composed of both RCMP officers and civilians from a variety of backgrounds, the NC3 will work with law enforcement and other partners to help reduce the threat, impact and victimization of cybercrime in Canada.

• Coordinate cybercrime investigations in Canada and work with partners internationally to combat a wide range of cybercrime incidents
• Provide investigative advice and guidance to Canadian police
• Produce cybercrime intelligence for Canadian police
• Create a single point of contact for individuals and businesses to report cybercrime online
