strength of our society and should be condemned when people are killed because of their real or perceived proximity to any party as happened in linz everyone needs to speak out but if it turns out that they perceived political affiliation was the reasoning behind these killings well that could have huge ramifications through austrian politics but also through politics throughout the wider e.u. we've got more stories here on r.t. test after this short break. here's what people have been saying about rejecting. the law. the only show i go out of my way to. really pack. is the john oliver of r t america's. we are apparently better than. the c. people you've never heard of love jack tonight. president of the world bank so very

12:12 pm
something bad then issue a correction if it turns out to be false that's a part and being said by some mainstream media giants the associated press using such corrections recently if you put trying to explain. if only it were a fact that russia hacked the u.s. elections that would make some journalist lives so much easier here's something recent from the new york times the american intelligence community has said there were some interference is a fact not an opinion get it fact ok but you still have to explain why something's a fact they chose this report with its many high degree of confidence tags attention judgments that don't imply that the assessment is a fact while the author of this and why times article got too carried away scroll down correction these system was not approved by all seventeen organizations in the american intelligence community though that's what millions of new york times
12:13 pm
readers were told in the original article at least it got caught with all those pesky fact checkers about life ain't that easy yet in school they taught me about the world's most respected news organizations like the times associated press but what do i see now on a.p.'s website that very same clarification correction for four stories over a period of three months you bet that correction didn't reach as many people and a.p. subscribers as the original four wires last week we got a glimpse into how stories with the hash tag russia and trump are done on c.n.n. live on c.n.n. constantly russia the first with. this ratings but honestly if you think. it's just like. most of the you know we don't know. john. proof this video was leaked after another c.n.n.
12:14 pm
online piece about trump's russia ties trump's associate has met a c.e.o. of a russian investment fund that headline would make the internet go. but but guess what it turned out to be false the article was were cracked it completely no corrections had three c.n.n. staff members resigned well you can only learn from your mistakes just don't be so shy all the up to what. the associated press news agency recently issued clarifications regarding several stories are published on rush's suppose it meddling in the us elections we are asked them to clarify why so many mistakes are made in their coverage but have had no response. the french president emanuel wants to slash the size of france's parliament by a third he announced the plan during an address to the senate and national assembly
12:15 pm
in there. and probably more. a smaller parliament with stronger means is a parliament work becomes more fluid where parliamentarians can surround themselves with a more better trained staff a parliament that works better that is why i proposed to reduce by a third of the members of the three constitutional assembly i am convinced that this measure will have a positive impact on the general quality of parliamentary work. reducing the size of the parliament wasn't the only proposal michael made the issue of terrorism was also touched upon he suggested lifting the state of emergency by autumn and bringing in tough anti terror measures on top of that home wants to loosen labor laws in a bid to boost jobs well let's discuss this further with political analyst. thanks certainly color for joining us here on r.t. . let's start with the size of parliament or indeed the suggestion to cut the size
12:16 pm
of parliament will this indeed streamline the business by passing the business of passing laws if he's able to do this. will probably be objective is to fall first of all it will obviously streamlining france you must know that france is five times smaller than the us but has more members of parliament than there are in the u.s. congress and i think this is been a very our subject a lot of people been talking about so it will downsize the flow of communication to get laughs through and also i think is showing a very strong giving a strong message to france saying that the french state is going to downsize globally i mean that's of the setting something really important he wants to show or to the french public i mean he's also admitted that if we look at the situation in a moment he's admitted there are problems with the specifically that there's too much bureaucracy how much of the new vision of europe is this in the way that he's talking now. well not much i mean the e.u.
12:17 pm
is a common scapegoat in france i mean and macro is the defender of the e.u. so i think he's just trying to show that there will be a new agenda for the for the e.u. and it's trying to be the makers of i think copper now because the next laws thank you for that he's going to try to vote through the rest of the through the parliament are going to be quite tough normally and we're thinking about the next labor laws i think a concern in the e.u. he did say that he wanted a new construction of the e.u. that he wanted to work with mrs merkel on something new with new faces from the european politics to give a new vision to europe based on peace so i think this is this is going to try something radical he did talk about the word revolution so he says he said he's going to bring something really new to the european union but he has the rest of his speech today he did not go into the details of what he was going to do what he was thinking about precisely yeah he seems to be outlining the ideas of the moment and the another idea of course we saw a lot of troubles with people unhappy with labor laws he's suggesting loosening the
12:18 pm
labor laws his predecessor's reforms they were widely condemned as we saw how do you think people will feel about his suggestion on loosening the labor laws or he's different going to have a strong fight with the unions here in france the paradox in this specific situation is that most of the unions whether they be c g t for example or are those they actually called their militants to vote for him against mrs append so this is going to be quite interesting to see how they react i mean they've all said now that that was politics and now they're going to get back to voting law so i think it's going to have a tough what we call in france the third round of the presidential election which is going to be in the streets which is going to be this artem will see what are some of the or the parliament tries to pull out this summer and we can imagine that these laws will bring a lot of people into the streets that does not know i think that's going to be some sign of the temperature of the french or social and political atmosphere within the next months is going to. watched the schools ok were lots to discuss nicola but
12:19 pm

12:21 pm
haven't seen any broadcasters boycotting russia or not because there's no reason to always be suspicious of this country say not about that contribute a book a soul is regular everyday people that want to get all this politics and the one thing i'm looking forward to hopefully from imported back. can see all of the city's surroundings some all right kathleen koch rushed off to off nazi not being to open to moscow peaceful is the first trip to someplace but will be a few more presenters to see not least before you can think she would definitely be in the running for a long list inside about a fantastic song genuinely and also you thank you for employed to make me no she won't be able to do this all again next year to. be. so the experience is someone else who is involved in all of these coverage though you know neal joins me now in the studio and you know you know you have
12:22 pm
a very different perspective you you for example were at the stadium for the final what a fantastic place to be yeah it was got to watch the germans in full flow with really wall world class player to their name really just winning at the fish and see the system great to watch a person but also a memory of the finally i was interviewing a. track and field superstar multiple olympic world champion you know i was having an interview with her about preparations she's from have told her brother which was one of the world cup matches you know i always wanted to have a chat with you and then all of a sudden she walks by diego maradona you know shopping and seeing more adult in the same place it was quite a moment and just that moment when he walked past the camera by the way i want to shout out she know when he was wiping away a little bit of ketchup from this my i think he just had a russian hot dog and he looked very happy about it and great pleasure and so very infamous cheat in wilco for all that has to be said one of my favorite memories of
12:23 pm
this whole competition was watching you in the sand when you speak into the next. great music they got rhythm they were fantastic for how to choose the families of the tournaments the mexican's with her son who was trying to fit it into their luggage compartment on the plane it was a lot of fun but i spoke to some of them you know and they were telling me how far they had to come maybe from their local small town. to mexico to mexico city to london to. moscow and then on to a lot of money a lot of preparations on the said we wanted to go to confederations cup because we weren't sure whether we'd get tickets for the world cup next year on the expense of the whole thing but the said you know what we've had such a good time here we're going to start saving now we really want to go to the world cup which i think was testimony to russia as a host while it still will come because theses considered to be to an extent preparation for the world up and it's going to be a lot more than just for host cities next time around how sure is well i was speaking to some actually brazilian fans the final now brazil of course hosted the
12:24 pm
last world cup on the confederations cup the year before that did a lot of praise for us but one of the things they said was that felt sometimes security at the stadiums was a little bit harsh getting a raw and except for it and that opens up a lot of discussion of security verses you know ease of getting a ride one of the other things as well about authorities would point out they got a lot of criticism for a football hooliganism so they really want the stamp whatever that would be there was nothing that we saw really no negative things here so that is something that they say we find a little bit whatever but next year you know they want to have a little bit more liberal but you know it's a discussion for another day how to keep it more secure and how to keep it more open yeah it's important to get these independent perspectives get some objectivity look at things that need to be absolutely great to get your your taken all this i have to say though as first time to myself it was only posted as all round good for

killed an elderly couple in austria allegedly motivated by his hatred of the country's far right freedom party. an eighty five year old woman and an eighty seven year old man were killed in their own home there was that an attempt made to burn their bodies in and burn the house down or police have confirmed that a fifty four year old man who came originally from tunisia to austria back in one thousand eight hundred nine is in custody he was well known to the couple in question we understand he delivered food to them a number of times a week that they'd helped him out with money in the past it's also believed that the reason that he. he's the main suspect in having carried out this attack in white urn himself into police was that he believed that the couple that were linked
1:10 pm
to the freedom party of austria the far right anti immigrant party we've also heard from the austrian chancellor christine cairn who said this where he's condemned this attack in the slaying of these two elderly people such crimes destroy trust in the strength of our society and should be condemned when people are killed because of their real or perceived proximity to any party as happened in lin's everyone needs to speak out but if it turns out that they perceived political affiliation was the reasoning behind these killings well that could have huge ramifications through austrian politics but also through politics throughout the wider e.u. . cross' president tomorrow mccrone is getting ready to downsize the parliament because that story and more after this break.

1:13 pm
a job why do you think that is well i think you could assume too much of all mainstream media there you get a lot of misinformation especially about all politics and they give free weight to i would say hate speech they speak out against aid speech but they give a lot of hate speech against policies that are deemed to be politically incorrect like our party and if you consume the media without criticizing their content and was all to thinking twice you may be used to believe that who is guilty for everything that happens to you but just a reminder for our viewers now what we're discussing gives the case that our two new zealand man is suspected of having killed an elderly couple in austria allegedly motivated by his hatred of the country's far right freedom party now this is your party do you think your party's agenda could result in more violence from refugees like this. well i don't hope so i don't hope so but as a said there is a certain climate of hating of hate and hate speech against my polity it's the fold
1:14 pm
of part of the medias it's the fault of part of the political establishment and the green party of the social democratic party the liberal party they give the impression that everything good goes wrong in the country is linked to the freedom party and that the freedom party is races into immigrants wants to discriminated. against people that are not of. of austrian origins that are not born here and all these things they give you the picture that if something goes wrong in your life you are an immigrant it may be linked to the freedom party still days a certain climate that may use things like that but of course this shouldn't be generalized case of this mood or is a single case and i don't hope it will be repeated only invited to a lot of parties to refrain from hate speech refrain from inside and accept the politics like my party as part of the political game. but of course your party has
1:15 pm
also been calling for a ban on muslim symbol was a similar to the ban on nazi symbols do you not think past just going to exacerbate tensions. yes that may be. to discount and in some people's mind but i don't think this will lead to action was as we saw murdering elderly couples which have nothing to do with the polity this is the reason why the establishment in the media is to portray the party is very evil but just asking for a ban of radical muslim symbols that would lead to murder us from top of muslim people. that's too much. like a talk and tell you what i have said of course. yes what i have to add of course is that even the violence is threatening it calmed leads to us or other people abandoning their political positions if we think if we deem it necessary to not to
1:16 pm
allow certain symbols of radical islam certain symbols of antidemocratic feeling while we have to stick to this position irrelevant what happened was what some mad mad guy guys do. on the no talk to you how does he have an austrian and pay for the freedom party of austria thank you for your time. not a french president among a crown wants to slash the size of france is parliament by a third he announced the plan during an address to the senate and the national assembly invests i. a smaller parliament but with stronger means is a parliament where work becomes more fluid where parliamentarians can surround themselves with more better train stone a parliament that works better that is why i proposed to reduce by a third of the members of this is really constitutional assembly i'm convinced that this measure will have a positive impact on the general quality of parliamentary work. why do you think
1:17 pm
the size of the parliament wasn't the only proposal mccrone made the issue of terrorism was also touched upon he suggested lifting the state of emergency by the autumn and bringing in tougher anti terror measures and on top of that mccrone wants to loosen labor laws in a bid to boost jobs well as discussed mcclellan's plans more now i'm joined by a french publish and journalist monophyly america mr america thank you for joining us on the program now president a crown argues that reducing the size of the parliaments will streamline the business of passing laws that's a good thing isn't it. or i don't think so when you have for instance french. i can go on on wednesday on the parliament because i have tennis lessons you can see how the this. has been elected without having made in politics in their lives because it's a very new party which has been elected with the with the help of the big media and
1:18 pm
pronounce you northern front nine billion hall the media so. these m.p.'s are only as employees of mr micro who is also an employee of the. thing so what about the color of the rejection. go ahead sorry i wanted to ask you about i think. his predecessors reforms. yes i think will people be happier with this new direction do you think. you know this is the he lacks legitimacy because he was elected by thirty four percent of the french people. with a complete disapproving of the. socialist party and. the right party. so you will crack down on this. labor code because the problem is
1:19 pm
that the only sovereignty which remains in france is in the street so there's the unions you can create. a defense of the french people but you know that is in this very place and her side of the place of the congress where the speech freedom of speech in firms has been completely. run it's so into shambles for instance. french people said no to the constitution and that was in this very parliament this congress as with me is french assembly and the senate decided to deny this approach and back row who lacks legitimacy try to to act as a king because it involves side which is very symbolic but we are the state of the separation of powers which has been created by motors cure theorized by motor skill and the problem was mr mccraw who acts as a manager because he wants to act as a boss with
1:20 pm
a laborer who knows he wants to be the kings the king's bodies you know the famous book of a country which the cancer bowl and i want to be this mystical body what about their jobs i think let's be realistic with the magic i say. what about the a suggestion of lifting his name. do you think france is ready for that it's. but everybody's world ready for that because you can't not always been always in a state of emergency it's normal it has been renewed five stars it does of being anything it's only a pretext to have crackdowns against demonstrations for instance i'm a publisher i couldn't bring my books in demonstration only to see where the think about the government and that's where that was that was a shame and. no. no consequences on the. real islamic terrorism fronts i cannot let money let merrick friends publish on journalist thank you for your time. and to football now is

1:27 pm
email. back guys are financial survival guide liquid those that you can burn in to cast quite easily. to keep in mind no assets mean to place an. order. revealing the truth c.n.n. in the nothing birth better known as russia gate also when trump tweeted in washington melted down and what to expect from the putin trump meetings in home. hello welcome to so if. not say digital technologies bring unprecedented
1:28 pm
opportunity in our lives but it also creates more targets for cyber criminals says everything around us is connected it all can be hacked so will our reliance on gadgets make us fatally vulnerable to cyber crime while i ask. the u.s. cyber crimes are. the touch after attack cyber criminals a plunging government into chaos paralyzing corporations and disruption people. as more and more devices and services go online becoming an easy target for hackers worldwide so how vulnerable are states and businesses to the actions of crypto criminals can critical infrastructure be protected from online assaults and what happens if malicious software forms into the wrong here. neil wallis chief of the united nations global program on cyber crime welcome to the program it's really
1:29 pm
great to have you with us now neil de lay does a crime story has been they want to cry attack in a factory lots of countries and damaged key infrastructure but the software the cyber weapon behind the want to cry virus was actually reportedly devout by the u.s. government and stolen by hackers so why aren't cyber weapons guarded as tightly as missiles or tanks. sophie thanks for giving me the time to talk with you today i think you raise an important point i obviously couldn't give you any specific detail on the original of the exploit because that's simply something that's been reported in the press and i have not seen the originals of that however would have dos show us one thing is the need for governments to work clearly together to help minimize the risk of exploitation or of difficulties in technical attacks on software well i mean a cyber weapon is basically finding a flaw or a hole in software right so if the government develops
1:30 pm
a cyber weapon it knows about software issues why not tell its allies why not tell the software company why make a weapon out of it i think that's a question that you have to address to individual governments where that was the issue but i think the creative point that comes across with all of this is the need for governments to work together and within the united nations office and drugs and crime that's what we do we bring governments together from around the world from iran political persuasions to try to minimize these sorts of risks and help those conversations to occur but i mean your work is part of your work also convincing people who are placed higher actually to work in communication with their analysis and not guarded secrets for themselves and maybe use it later i think it is a mystery. that. the way we work is that we for example we hosted the intergovernmental
1:31 pm
expert group on cyber crimes and governments from around the world sit on that it met most recently in april of this year and it's that sort of opportunity where we create the mechanism for governments to talk to each other to work together to grow relationships and ultimately all of this is about minimizing the risk to the public from saw the crown but how hard is it to give for the government to make the governments give up those findings. i think the way that the u.n. works we don't interfere directly in the issues of us over a member state when we do is to create that atmosphere and the capability for governments to work together and i think what we seek to encourage are those sorts of relationships where governments from across the world from across political divide do sit together to try and work their way through some of the most challenging of issues in cyber it's a ten something how damaging can a cyber attack be i mean what's the worst case do you have to hack into the military to hold onto you you have to hack into military computers to do lots of
1:32 pm
damage or a kidney mass where the infrastructure and step shut down an electricity grid or a phone network for example yeah i think that's a really important question and the context of that is exceptionally important because depending on which country that that happens is in depending on what their critical national infrastructure is you could have a really serious impact we've seen where smaller countries more developing nations have suffered from attacks that have for example crippled the internet for a period of time i was speaking with representatives of just last week and they were explaining from their analysis and from their data the attacks on critical infrastructure have changed in the past year so instead of energy attacks being the priority we've seen a rise in water and of water infrastructure coming under attack but looking at a different way you may be for a country that depends on tourism as your primary source of revenue so for example if an attack occurred the took the target industry offline hit hotels hit the
1:33 pm
infrastructure for bringing tourists around the country can be exceptionally grave on an economy as well so it really is can text really dependent a london based think tank assess the u.k.'s trident nuclear submarines can be hacked into which could potentially lead to the horrors of its weapons being launched u.k. government has repeatedly denied any possibility that tried an operating systems can be hacked what's your take on that. i've got nothing really that i could comment on that i have no knowledge of trident i have no knowledge of any member states operating systems for for nuclear weapons or anything like that so i think you need to ask the government concerned now what. is it theoretically possible to hack into something so huge that would unleash a catastrophe again without having any knowledge of that system or how it's built i really couldn't give you an honest answer on that it's not only anonymous hackers
1:34 pm
from the deep with seeing states use like stuxnet add on adversaries already cyber war the battleground of the future as it all going to be done with computer programs i think what we see so few from cyber crime and cyber attacks that it has made things easier whether it's a state by satanic whether it is an organized crime based attack or off in the gray areas in between and within my program what we seek to do is help member states from across the world on their request to build the capability to investigate such attacks and minimize that risk but i think as the internet of fame is so devices that are connected to the internet grows that there needs to be a must much stronger posture of cyber security around the world both from industry governments to help minimize that risk and the public are key to minimizing that risk what scale does a cyber attack have to be in order to provoke a real live military response to be seen as an act of war. i think again all of
1:35 pm
this is contextual it would depend on the country involved and depends on what the nature of that attack would be one of the biggest challenges that any investigators face in dealing with cyber crime is a provision who did it what did it come from and as we've seen with many of these attacks i mean you've mentioned one across the recent won't run somewhere or attack it's still unclear where that originated from so our clear message to government is to work together around the world to minimize this risk to grow those relationships and make sure that diplomacy is the key to everything and then there's also how governments use the internet and hacking and is on balance like in qatar its neighbors cut ties with it partly because of something the emir sat and now they're claiming it was a hack but with it being so hard to identify the perpetrators are the unseen hackers becoming a convenient political scapegoat again it's a really good question sophia and it brings me back i think to the previous
1:36 pm
response the after of you should is the most difficult bit and that's where we need to ensure that governments across the world across political divide have the capability to investigate and deal with cyber crime attacks because without that it is exceptionally difficult to draw a conclusion on the original of that and to work on the policy that goes around the u.s. intelligence and lawmakers are considering investigating. software because they think that moscow can use it to do bad things do you thing that stu to diligence are or is it politics actually compromising security and really just your personal take on that i have do understand your position working at the u.n. you need to stay neutral but it's something that has to be your take what's your take on that. so i think in all of this and i wasn't aware of what a bit of what you said there about a. ski if we look at the we look at other other russian companies grew by b.
1:37 pm
for example they work with industry that work with law enforcement and government in lots of different bits of the world so for example in europe whole use law enforcement agency group b. are a critical guidance factor to the european sovereign problem center and i think that shows to me how important the collaboration between industry alone foresman is and that's the sort of thing that i would certainly advocate for him push much more for the importance of industry in being a preventive measure home sauber crime on helping governments around the world today with these issues is absolutely fundamental there is too much of sauber crime to investigate it way out of the row with industry have protection under investigation is going to continue to grow irrespective of where they're based now the n.s.a. and major media outlets reported on the alleged russian hacking of a menu i met clones complain as fact and now we're getting information from french
1:38 pm
intelligence that russia had nothing to do with it the us claimed that russia attempted to influence the vote in austria and now vienna itself is denying it what's up with the n.s.a. expertise i mean how could they get it so spectacularly wrong. again having no experience of vienna or the substance of what you're discussing it's exceptionally difficult for me to comment on that with any with any real substance over what i do think this shows again and again is the necessity for diplomacy at the heart of countering state based of cyber and i think the way that we work at the un by bringing governments together and we're seeing a very good constructive process there is something that we need to continue to do and governments around the world are committed to doing that it's all role model to help make that happen so alex running voting safe enough nowadays or should countries just go back to good old paper ballots i think like anything we see in cyber there are elements of protection elements of security that you can put around
1:39 pm
anything there is no such thing as one hundred percent security and each individual member state has to make their own decision on what's right for them we see some governments some countries that choose to use paper based systems we see others that choose to use our trauma and really that is a decision for them the key to all of this is making sure that there is comfort in the system that's in place right now we're going to take a short break right now and while we're back we'll continue talking to you they had of the united nations global program on sabur crimea while on how to fight cyber crimes more effectively states won't.
1:40 pm
we. magnificent anywhere from facebook for food i. say mushroom people really nice and friendly and i might the foreigners feel welcome in russia. because the food was dusty quickly just not very enjoyable place to be in very friendly pay told my son come to. comprehend one letter to be so may surprise me some basic go through. the punch post a small something most people don't realize here we're very glad that i'm here which is mostly still.
1:41 pm
about your sudden passing i've only just learnt you worry yourself and taken your last turn. up to you as we all knew it would i tell you i'm sorry for me i could so i write these last words in hopes to put to rest these things that i never got off my chest. i remember when we first met my life turned on each breath . but then my feeling started to change you talked about war like it was again still some are fond of you those that didn't like to question our ark and i secretly promised to never be like it said one does not leave a funeral the same as one enters the mind gets consumed with death this one quite different i speak to you now because there are no other takers. to claim that
1:42 pm
mainstream media has met its maker. the libya there's a saying. i think they're going to cheat busted and then through and through all that come through stuff but the idea and they're right it's called your skull he said if you give them everything they do to bust. this god because of america this is what we don't understand how we are in such a country. but others are doing the ones at the same time to. notice and i'm going to. assume the one of the similar personal belief john looked like he didn't want to make one but i did because if you feel if the middle of on board not that god
1:43 pm
can we live again in the world without falling about the future without the plaintiffs that work. to the story. of the sea. and we're back with mia wallace chief of the united nations global trade ramón cybercrime neal welcome back now you've been saying that close international cooperation is needed to fight cyber crime but it already exists in some form so is it more that this countries don't really want to coppery no i don't think that's the case the whole world we see on a daily basis both at
1:44 pm
a policing and law enforcement level through to diplomacy is the real desire to work together we had over ninety member states from the u.n. in vienna a few weeks ago discussing sauber problem discussing matters of policy and diplomacy that's working there's more to be done but it is working and that alone for some level we see cooperation bilaterally so between states a multilateral e through institutions like interpol in europe whole and that is working i think there is that desire that we're about working together we're about keeping countries and citizens safer from saw. but you're still saying that there is more a need it right there's always more that can be done i think to enable closer working together to build those relationships and build trust across different bits of law enforcement and organizations so i mean six has been reinforcing that cyber security squats with hundreds more stuff does that mean that intelligence agencies will rely upon internet and social media war than style agents. again
1:45 pm
a good question but having no knowledge of m i six or how that structure would work i think it's a question you'd have to refer to the u.k. government but looking at the broader sense of that i think where we see if we look across crime and cyber crime as a whole seeing that delineation between what happens online and offline is becoming increasingly blurred one of the biggest risks that the most deal with around the world is online child sexual exploitation and abuse and as adults we might often have a perception of what a risk might be but when we speak to kids when we speak to younger teenagers their understanding of what happens online and offline really has become a very grey area that there is no separation between online and offline it's just life so it means the we as investigators diplomats we have to have a different approach an approach that recognizes or children assess the risk to be no sign of something and this i'm sure you know a sadder crime separate from ordinary crime i mean is it really geeks and nerds and
1:46 pm
darkened rooms or is an organized and much tighter like a mexican cartel. it's a really good question and we tend to look at cyber as being cyber dependent so where you need a computer to do something so for example hacking a computer system or cyber enabled let's look at a traditional black card for old ten years ago i would have needed to stay your credit card to do it whereas now i could send you an e-mail and socially engineer you to give me your bank card data so really there is that broad mix of stuff that you need a computer system to do it and then other things that can happen generally sometimes it'll be an individual kid or adult with a coding capability other times we look at i think a growing risk what we call cyber crime as a service where highly technical highly experienced cyber criminals will offer their capability to other organized criminals even individuals so for someone with no capability if they want to become
1:47 pm
a cyber criminal they don't need to learn how to do it they can just pay someone to do it for they give me an example how exactly can sabur a cap of a lady help irregular criminal operation like an extortion ring or a drug smuggling yeah absolutely there is a case case that's in the press from a couple of years ago where there was a large drug trafficking group operating from south america through to northern europe through the port of antwerp in belgium cyber criminals help the organized crime group to move their large amounts of cocaine to have cocaine from south central america through to antwerp and by manipulating the computer systems within the the doc the port based companies and the container based companies where this was moved it helped the organized crime group to traffic a large amount of drugs without detection for a period of time and this is where we see that cyber criminals can help other organized criminals to reduce their risk and to really try and make a difficult venture much much easier. so is cyber crime or about hacking meaning is
1:48 pm
it mostly technical or is it about making people do things like clicking on a bad link juv being them into doing something silly blackmailing i don't know if you remember they were banned in virus that was simply an email asking you to just delete important files are the public the weakest link in cyber security. again an excellent question and something that we hear regularly you can look at it two ways you can say the public is the weakest link because you put in infrastructure or technical protection into everything you've gold. but still someone could come in and maybe put an infected u.s.b. stick in or click on an infected e-mail already or an infected website the alternative is to look at the public can be your strongest link with the public can be the most important part of your defensive armor by education by empowering the public we can help to minimize the risk of cyber crime within my program or on the world in guatemala el salvador coke where educating the public and how to stay safe
1:49 pm
and how to become that critical part in keeping structures and infrastructure saif they want to cry tat made a lot of noise but they didn't make make much money for those behind it is big money mate quietly and cybercrime and how i mean can you give us an example of how it's done sure that's a good one across the first it's a great example of something that didn't work it's attracted so much public attention from around the world and political attention i think if there's a good news story out of one across is that it's broad run somewhere to the top of the cyber crime political agenda something that lone foresman diplomacy has been talking about for some is the internet organized crime threat assessment a europe whole publishes has been pushing run somewhere as a critical threat now we see governments around the world talking about it even in russia as you know seventy five percent of victims of want to cry were based in the russian federation so we see that as a crime group or
1:50 pm
a criminal trying to make money and as you rightly say they haven't made much money a toll in fact only around fifty bitcoin which is around one hundred thousand euro has been sent to those criminals bitcoin addresses and they've not been able to actually see or take that money yet so in effect want to cry has made the creators of the disseminators over no money at all so a criminal business model with. didn't work where we look and where we see making real money is the attack on banking infrastructure and institutions and sometimes on business as well there is still often a reluctance of big business so to report if they have had a breach if they have lost an amount of money that may be because they're afraid of a reaction from shareholders or boards of directors but we really encourage business to work with loan foresman to try and counter that threat if it's simply written off for fear of embarrassment that cannot help law enforcement it can also help a government to help minimize the risk to true economic prosperity in the society
1:51 pm
so when we see money like that being made if we don't counter that we don't come to the narrative of it that's where sauber criminals continue to exploit it so the cyber crime is also made possible due to need digital cameras like bitcoin that you mentioned this is the ultimate crime enabler or can actually trace stand recipients of the currency sure i'm not sure i would call it the ultimate crime enabler it's just another way of doing business in many ways no different to some informal ways of moving money if cohen and other crypto currencies seek to be anonymous so semi anonymous however the work that we're doing within the united nations office on drugs and crime where we're building the capacity of investigators around the world to counter sauber crime we can investigate block chain bit coinbase transactions and we are very good at working with partners such as china as to identify where
1:52 pm
those transactions are and who the users behind them are so are you anonymous if you use bitcoin can you get away with it no you can't. can be done completely anonymously or is leaving a digital fingerprint inevitable can someone believe that fake fingerprint on purpose. again another good question and it's back to the conversation about attribution who did it some criminals some cyber crime advanced persistent threat groups will seek to try and anonymize where they are or to pretend to be coming from somewhere else and the challenge for investigators is to try and identify those digital footprints as you rightly call it to try and work out who they are and where they are trying to identify on those occasions where someone is pretending to be somebody else or pretending to be in a different place it's not easy but it's not necessarily impossible either but it takes time threats and may once more government regulation of the internet
1:53 pm
following the latest london attack but with that do any good i mean if a person wants to hide online they will so are those kinds of current proposals and overreaction or a lack of understanding about how the web actually works i think the key point in all of this sophie is than the says there's a the absolute necessity of government governments to sit together work together and talk through these issues the risk of sauber problem the risk of terrorists exploiting the opportunities on the internet is a global phenomenon it's not just a unique to the u.k. we see it around the world so i think for us at the u.n. to host the forum give the the opportunity for governments for internet service providers for social media companies to sit together discuss these problems and come up with workable solutions that's the key to it according to threat metrics cyber security firm fifty percent more cyber attacks originate from europe and any other part of the world over the last couple of months overtaking the united states
1:54 pm
for the first time how do you explain that how do you claim this shift. sure again back to the attributions are where it's coming from who's doing it awarded we identify where those that attacks have arisen from sometimes i think we see where there is a poster from lone foresman that shows cracking down on a specific geographic area or a specific threat area then we sometimes see a shift in where those attacks are where those crimes originate from so i think when we see from like you say from us to europe we see a shift that will be for a period of time and then we'll see it move somewhere else as well something we're very conscious of very aware of is the risk of a jurisdiction of risk so a country or an area where cyber criminals seek to exploit a weakness in the just listen or a weakness in investigation or enforcement capability and that's where our role with the u.n. working with others like interpol if you're a folk you're
1:55 pm
a pole bilateral governments is to try a capacity to minimize those risks now you worked in actual law enforcement and you fought terrorism with the f.b.i. and you worked with interpol can do you an organization you work on me advise others on how to fight cyber crime or can actually fight it as well. united nations offers them drugs and isn't an investigative body our role is upon request to go to countries and help them build their investigative capability so we don't get involved in the investigation of an offense we don't get involved in the prosecution well we can do what we do do is to build that capability to investigate helping the infrastructure get in place helping a government policy to get in place helping investigators to grow their capability to investigate we help them get in touch with other countries to build those relationships and to build that capability to do something but the actual investigation process is a role for each individual country to do and we wouldn't seek to get involved in that whatsoever all right mr welsh thank you for taking time to talk to us today
1:56 pm
were discussing cyber security with me whilst chief of the united nations global program on cyber crime that's it for this edition of sophie and co i'll see you next time. well. when the ruling class is
