ABOUT

We are police led and aim to empower people with the knowledge and resources they need to recognise and combat fraud and cyber crime.

Across the UK, there are 9 Regional Organised Crime Units (ROCUs) which have been developed to tackle serious and organised crime; the ROCU for the east is the Eastern Region Special Operations Unit (ERSOU).

Each ROCU oversees the local police forces in their region and within ERSOU, we cover Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire, Essex, Kent, Norfolk and Suffolk. There are Cyber Protect Officers and Cyber Choices Officers positioned in each of these police forces to provide cyber support to their communities. Visit the Our Team page to find your local officer.

If you would like more information on a ROCU outside of the eastern region, visit https://www.rocu.police.uk/.
