There is an acknowledged global skills gap looming, with an estimated shortfall of 1.8 million cyber security experts by 2020. The UK is in a prime place to fill much of that gap if we take the opportunity and divert talented young people into cyber careers. We are Police Officers within the South East Regional Organised Crime Unit (SEROCU) - a joint unit covering the Hampshire, Thames Valley, Sussex and Surrey Police forces. We sit at the level between those forces and the National Crime Agency, dealing with complex and organised crime, alongside the delivery of niche and specialist capabilities to the forces. That’s where our Cyber Crime Unit fit in. Our role as Police Officers working in the Cyber Choices team is: * Educate young people about the dangers and penalties of getting involved in cyber * crime * Educate young people about opportunities in cyber security * Divert those on the cusp of committing cyber crime * Manage the highest risk cyber offenders We are reaching out to you in the hope that we might find partners within education, relevant agencies and industry who are willing and able to support our objectives. This may be by offering positive engagement and diversionary activity such as: • Work experience opportunities • Extra-curricular education • Apprenticeships • Mentoring For those already working with young people we are also open to referrals for any person you are concerned may be at risk of cyber criminality, in order that we can intervene and provide positive diversion.
