Summary of bilateral results

Project were implemented with significant engagement of Norwegian Partner – Norwegian Police University College. Norwegian Partner was responsible for conducting majority of trainings within the project. Before conducting trainings Project Promoter and Norwegian Partner created a survey for attendees to find out are their exact training needs. Attendees of the trainings were very satisfied with the trainings conducted by Norwegian Partner.

Besides from conducting trainings, Norwegian Partner organised study visit in Norway for Polish Police officers. During the visit, Polish police officers got acquainted with the structure of the Norwegian criminal police and local forensic laboratories. They looked at their equipment and observed the work of their Norwegian counterparts. They got to know the hardware and software facilities used by the Norwegian Police. Thanks to the study visit Project could be updated – Polish representatives noticed the widespread availability of software to break cryptographic security of mobile devices (being in physical possession of law enforcement entities), and decided to implement those solutions in Polish Forensic Laboratories as well.

Cooperation between Polish Police Headquarters and Norwegian Police University College found a continuation in bilateral initiative “Training in the area of computer forensic”. Within this initiative more training concerning network forensic was conducted by Norwegian specialists for Polish Police Forensic Laboratories.
