The Global Problem with Cybercrime

The Global Problem with Cybercrime

All over the world, the situation is the same: police and the legal system are not prepared or organized to handle cybercrime, especially when it happens across borders and at the massive scale we see today.

Cybercrimes are not only complex but also extremely time consuming to investigate. Combined with limited resources, this has resulted in a situation where police and prosecutors are doing very little. Victims are often told that no investigation will be initiated, leaving them without justice.

The Breakthrough of Generative AI

Artificial Intelligence has been available on the market for some years, but a major breakthrough came with the development of generative AI. This new design, combined with much more powerful technology, has made it possible to build AI agents that are far more advanced than ever before.

Even more revolutionary is the ability to have teams of AI agents working together, each with their own specialized skills.

This is the technology behind AI Agent Nina. Nina is supported by an army of AI agents, each specializing in different tasks such as:

  • Reading and understanding complex documents

  • Working across multiple languages

  • Searching the internet for additional evidence and information

Together, they form an unprecedented investigative force, faster, smarter, and more thorough than any single human investigator.

The Role of IT Forensics

IT forensics is essentially about searching and analyzing open source information. When we say open source, we mean all the information available on the internet, news, documents, databases, images, social media, and much more.

Even in traditional police work, over 95% of investigations rely on open-source material. Police may have access to some closed national sources, but when it comes to cross-border cybercrime, those are often out of reach.

This means that, in practice, a police report about a cybercrime is usually about finding the right open source information. The challenge lies in finding all the necessary pieces quickly and accurately. That's exactly what our AI agent Nina is designed to do.

Why AI Investigators Change Everything

In normal police work, investigations are limited by resources. Police and prosecutors must prioritize which cases to pursue, and no country has enough resources to investigate every crime reported.

For victims, this often means waiting months just to have an investigator assigned, if that ever happens. And if an investigation is initiated, it can take years before it reaches any result. Too often, the outcome is disappointing: prosecutors may close the case due to lack of resources, lack of evidence, or inability to identify the criminal.

With AI Agent Nina, no victim is left behind. The investigation starts immediately, looks at everything available in open sources, and processes it with the speed of advanced AI.

Think of it like doing a very complex calculation:

  • A human with pen and paper may need hours, or may never complete it.

  • A calculator solves it in seconds.

In the same way, AI Agent Nina can investigate in seconds what would take human investigators months or years. This ensures that every victim has a chance for justice, no matter the scale of the crime.
