"Cyber-crime is a growing and serious threat to individuals, business and
government," said Davis. "It is a problem that will continue to escalate as
technology changes."
The Tories are calling for new offences for civil servants and government
contractors who lose personal data, and a new police squad to track down and
prosecute cyber-criminals.
The proposed team would be part of the
Crown
Prosecution Service, working alongside a proposed Police National Cybercrime
Unit and acting on leads submitted to a new website for the centralised
reporting of internet crimes.
Proposals also include a so-called "breach law" which would force financial
institutions to inform the
Financial
Services Authority in the event of confidential customer data being
breached.
The proposals are widely seen as an attempt by the opposition to capitalise
on recent personal data debacles at government departments.
