BAKU, Azerbaijan, June 4. A cyber investigation
department has launched its operations within the State Security
Service (SSS) of Azerbaijan, Davud Rustamov, Head of the National
Cybersecurity Center of the State Security Service, said at the 4th
National Cybersecurity Forum, Trend reports.
He noted that the tandem functioning of procedural and
cyber-forensic investigation branches serves to achieve significant
success in combating cyber threats and aims to deliver serious
results in this direction.
"We must definitely strengthen public-private partnerships,
AI-based defense mechanisms, risk assessment, and increase our
initiatives to scale AI solutions so that new risks do not emerge
within large volumes of data," he added.
Rustamov also spoke about international cooperation in ensuring
cybersecurity.
"We have points of contact with 160 cybersecurity centers around
the world. Within the framework of the Budapest Convention, we take
measures to investigate cybercrime cases through a 24/7
communication channel. Work is also underway regarding the recently
adopted UN convention on cybersecurity, which Azerbaijan was the
first to ratify," he added.
