Could You Spot the Signs? Understanding Com Networks and Online Harm

The online world continues to evolve, bringing with it new and emerging risks for children and young people. One area of growing concern is the rise of Com Networks, online communities that can target and exploit vulnerable people, encouraging them to engage in harmful, abusive and, in some cases, serious criminal behaviour.

To help professionals better understand this threat, the North Yorkshire Police Cybercrime Team will be delivering a webinar for practitioners across North Yorkshire.
