The European Electronic Crime Task Force (EECTF) is an information sharing initiative,[1][2][3][4] created in 2009 by an agreement[5][6][7] between the United States Secret Service, the Italian Ministry of Internal Affairs and Poste Italiane. The EECTF's mission is "to support the analysis and the development of best practices against cybercrime in European countries, through the creation of a strategic alliance between public and private sectors, including Law Enforcement,[4] the financial sector,[8][9] academia,[1][10][11] international institutions,[12][13][14] and ICT security vendors".[15]
Accordingly, the EECTF aims to help the cyber security community by:
Strengthening relationships between the different players;
Training and supporting members through sharing[12][16][17][18] expertise and knowledge;
Enabling an effective communication channel for information exchange;
Maintaining co-operation[19] on a technical and operational level.
