2. Growth of Cybercrime and drivers in Cyber
Enforcement
• The WannaCry and NotPetya attacks of mid-2017, an unprecedented global
scale, affecting an estimated 300 000 victims worldwide, in over 150
countries. WannaCry attacks alone estimated to have cost global economies
in the region of USD 4 billion
• World Economic Forum’s Global Risks Report 2019 ranked cyberattacks
among the top-five risks.
• In 2017 the world’s economy lost close to $600 billion, nearly one percent
of global gross domestic product to cybercrime. Over the next five years
cybercrime could cost the private sector $5.2 trillion .
• Whilst in Europe, it has been estimated that cybercrime costs losses of 160
to 180 billion

8.  Safety is a public good, which can be threatened by crime.
 Cyber enforcement is: not solely responsibility of public sector
stakeholders is a collective responsibility of the private sector
stakeholders
 Is the common understanding of the public good at stake, that strengthens
the need to identify and leverage key enablers for effective public-private
cooperation, whilst maintaining accountability and public trust.
 Trust between public and private stakeholders is a key factor to
cooperation.
 To enable public-private cooperation, the general liability framework
(rights and obligations) applicable to i.e internet intermidiaries, supply
chain, etc in relation to public authorities and their subscribers need to be
carefully balanced and require diligent implementation in relation to
fundamental rights.
