Security News > 2024 > April > WEF Cybercrime Atlas: Researchers are creating new insights to fight cybercrime

Hosting the Cybercrime Atlas in the World Economic Forum creates the space to experiment with how we enable disruption collaborations - giving the Cybercrime Atlas participants access to the expertise and ideas of the Forums' Partnership Against Cybercrime community.

This was a turning point as it answered one of the first questions posed by the Cybercrime Atlas community: can we create new and actionable intelligence relying on open-source information and, by working collectively, can we build insights that match or exceed those created by the community members working in isolation? The answer to both of these questions is a resounding "Yes".

The Cybercrime Atlas community draws on expertise from companies ranging in size from boutique to global.

As the body of research created by the Cybercrime Atlas community grows, it is expected to act as a utility that accelerates joint-research and responses to cybercrime.

The Forum's Partnership Against Cybercrime community has been working to promote stronger public-private cooperation in the fight against cybercrime and exploring optimal approached for facilitating such collaboration.

The Cybercrime Atlas demonstrates how companies can come together with a common purpose to combat cybercrime.
