All the members of the computer crime unit at the
Metropolitan Police are joining the BCS to gain professional
recognition and provide comment to the BCS Information Security
Specialist Group.
The officers are highly trained in IT security and forensics and
have a wealth of policing and detective skills.
Four members are certified in information system security, three
have MScs in information security, one has an MSc in legal
jurisprudence and two are working on PhDs in security.
Detective sergeant Steve Santorelli said, "It is essential to gain
professional recognition, and the BCS membership gives us the
credibility we deserve."
