The following information is for setting the records straight. I release it now because I am no longer threaten to do so.

As it seems that there was not only some worries about legal threats (existing only in the misinterpretation of some) but also some paranoia about who e-pol.org is, I enclose here copies of the text from the sites that e-pol had in 2001 and in 2006 (the 2007 can be seen now and has few info) This info was provided by a friend who is in a senior post in the Ministry of Interior of his country and he said he got it from their contacts with international law enforcement . (By the way, I should not have been pushed to find info about them, they were recommended to me and I contacted them in good faith, have nothing to do with who they are or are not, it is the same as if someone who complains to a Consumer protection Agency is held responsible for what that agency is or does, absurd) .

Furthermore, I showed copies of the messages from e-pol saying that no wikipedian was involved in the case I presented (Nick also got these), the case has been closed at my request after receiving apologies and an agreement from some parties involved and total ignoring from others.

I have made all that was expected from my side.

E-POL

An International Organization of Professionals promoting Common Ethics & Security Standards on the Internet preventing

e-crime & threats affecting e-commerce & world trade.

NEW YORK - Tuesday, May 30:

E-POL 2000 ANNUAL CONFERENCE ON

CYBER-TERRORISM & CYBER-CRIME

At the E-POL 2000 Annual Conference on Cyber-Terrorism and Cyber-Crime organized by the E-POL USA Country Center with the support of the NY AFCEA Founders' Chapter, members of ASIS and the ROTI Task Force of the Rotarians On The Internet of the New York Rotary Club, special recognition was given to Joseph A. Sullivan by John L. Martin, the "Number One Spy-Catcher" of the Justice Department, now retired and Chairman of E-POL. Joe Sullivan, a legend of the FBI, received a handsome, curved glass memento that was inscribed with the following words authored by writer Tom Clancey:

The New York Rotary luncheon was part of a full day event. Chairman of the Day at the Rotary and organizer of the event was fellow Rotarian Giorgio Balestrieri, Secretary-General of E-POL, an organization of professionals promoting common ethics and industry standards on the Internet, preventing e-crime & threats affecting e-commerce and world trade. Keynote speaker was Sydney F. Martin, President of SYTEX and a Member of the Board and Sponsor of the E-POL International Academy at the Information Warfare Center of Excellence. SYTEX serves as a consultant to multinationals, institutions and law enforcement agencies (the company is currently training the FBI at the IWCE). Mr. Martin paraphrased the Pentagon as stating that they experience up to 2000 attempted break-ins each day, which emphasizes the seriousness and magnitude of this new crime that is very inexpensive to perpetrate and sometimes difficult and costly to uncover. Many issues are still unfolding and being developed about this new niche in the American Business. Most companies feel like they are "on their own." Issues such as "What is good computer security?" "Who will set the standard?" "How will standards be established?" "Who is responsible to determine if a crime has been committed - the company or the law enforcement?" "Who is responsible to gather evidence so the integrity of the evidence can be maintained for the prosecution." Mr. Martin said that there is a need to answer these issues on a national or global manner and left the door open to many interesting and intriguing situations that concern the world through cyber-space.

After the luncheon, during a Roundtable on Cyber-Terrorism, US panelists discussed with American, Asian, European and Russian experts that there are at least four classes of targets that might be attacked by cyber-terrorists (including hackers) that are of grave concern in the US; these are:

1.The Defense Department - The Defense Department represents a target of opportunity for a variety of ill-wishers. The US Dept. of Defense sustains more than 1000 hacker "hits" each day, of which some 100 are deemed to be serious threats. Known adversaries have large staffs of trained information warfare specialists who could do a country much harm. The systems that could be attacked include communications systems, command and control systems, logistics and personnel systems, tactical weapons systems;

2.National Infrastructures - National systems that could be attacked include telecommunications, power, transportation, financial, medical, and others. Attacks could disrupt, embarrass, achieve political objectives, weaken the morale of the populace, weaken the strength of the nation;

3.Commercial entities - Attacks could be theft (of data, money, intellectual property, etc.), disruption of E-Commerce, or such; and

4.Private citizens - Private information could be taken and used against citizens (e.g., health status); theft of funds and/or disruption of E-Commerce are also possible.

The attacks could take any number of forms -- extortion, blackmail, theft, political agenda, terrorist agenda (usually to gain a forum), or such. Attackers could range from extra-National enemies (e.g., foreign nations), quasi-national entities (e.g., drug cartels), regular terrorists and thieves, disgruntled employees, insiders wishing to manipulate data for whatever purpose (e.g., control stock market prices), or the like. Defense takes many forms. First and foremost is to have a trained cadre of IT professionals who can recognize attacks, react to attacks before irrecoverable harm is done, recover from attacks quickly, accomplish necessary forensics following attack. This needs to be followed by developing and employing defensive systems, including firewalls, intrusion detection systems, network monitoring systems/software, audit log assessment tools, and a whole variety of others.

The E-POL International Academy at the Information Warfare Center of Excellence recommends to:

1.Train (first level must be managers/executives who need to understand the threat and possible responses, then comes the Systems Administrators, a Cyber Emergency Response Task Force, and forensic specialists).

2.Prioritize national systems. Start with most important and work downwards to: (a) Conduct comprehensive Information System Security Assessments which identify security weaknesses; (b) For noted deficiencies, develop strategies and methods of overcoming them; (c) Implement and test the corrective actions identified; and (d) Establish an ongoing reassessment approach.

3.For each major system, to develop security policies to be followed. Note that the comprehensive analyses include physical as well as computer. In parallel, raise the national awareness of commercial concerns and individuals and get them to follow the same procedures.

CONCLUSION

Offenses on the Internet can be classified as international because of the behavior of the offenders and the characteristics of their crime. Consequently, selected professionals such as corporate executives, senior agencies/organizations' officers, CIO's, CFO's, CPA's/comptrollers, corporate counsels, directors of security, database managers, and others with equivalent professional duties must work together, to the extent permitted by law, with local/national police departments and INTERPOL in different countries, if they are to prevent and combat this new international crime successfully.

E-POL members in communities from nations around the world (large and small, developed and emerging) can address important issues such as Cyber-Terrorism and Cyber-Crime that may affect us all.

Message from Dr. Atta-ur-Rahman, Federal Minister for Science & Technology Government of Pakistan Delivered by Rtn. Dr. Mushtaq Ali Bagram, President Elect of the Rotary Club of Rawalpindi, Pakistan.

"It is indeed heartening to note that the New York Rotary Club is holding a Conference on Cyber Terrorism and Cyber Crime in this business capital of the world. The Rotary Club's effort to deliberate, discuss and examine the cyber terrorism and cyber crime issues is very pertinent and timely. It is pertinent because the issue has a strong bearing on the exponentially growing electronic business and timely because the cyber space is increasingly becoming more volatile to cyber terrorism and cyber crime. We have recently witnessed the disaster inflicted on businesses by the LOVE virus. Who knows how many more are in the making. The need for a safe and secure cyber space in such an environment is of paramount importance and this effort of New York Rotary Club is therefore commendable. The Government of Pakistan condemns terrorism and crime in all its forms and shapes regardless of wherever on the globe it happens. Cyber terrorism and cyber crime is not an exception. Keeping in view the present and prospective importance of electronic commerce, Government of Pakistan has drafted a comprehensive Electronic Transaction Act 1999, which is in the approval process. This law has explicit provisions to deal with cyber terrorism and cyber crime. The law provides for the capital punishment and imprisonment to the individuals involved in cyber crime. I assure the participants of this conference that Pakistan is solidly behind the world community in its effort to make the cyber space secure, safer and more enjoyable for the businesses around the globe. I once again congratulate the New York Rotary Club for organizing this conference."

Dr. Sonny Lee, E-POL Pacific-Rim Chief Regional Inspector participated to the Conference at the prestigious Princeton Club in New York City leading a delegation of Professionals from the Republic of Korea. The E-POL South Korean executives where the first one being trained this year by the E-POL International Academy at the Information Warfare Center of Excellence of SYTEX the Industry Partner of 3SKOREA.COM. 3SKOREA.COM is the company hosting the E-POL Pacific-Rim Regional Center and the E-POL ROK National Center represented at the conference by Inspector Chong Man Park. The company is pursuing an accelerated program to train Professionals in Seoul in order to create the first National CERTF (Cyber Emergency Response Task Force) and respond to the needs of the Republic of Korea. Giorgio Balestrieri, E-POL Secretary-General announced that Chief Regional Inspector Sonny Lee and Inspector Chong Man Park are discussing in concert with other national authorities the formation of other E-POL National Centers and CERTFs in the other countries of the Pacific-Rim E-Region that includes Australia, China, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Mongolia, New Zealand, Philippines, Singapore.

Mr. Ilya Mikhailevich, President of UNISEL, participated to the Conference at the prestigious Princeton Club in New York City representing a delegation of Professionals from the Russian Federation and Ukraine both part the E-POL Eurasia E-Region. UNISEL International Services a division of UNISEL is hosting the E-POL Russian Federation National Center in Moscow. The company invested more than $250,000 in setting up in Moscow very modern and secure facilities. Following the example set early this year by the Republic of Korea E-POL National Center, Mr. Mikhailevich is planning to pursue an accelerated program to train Russian Professionals in order to create a Russian National CERTF (Cyber Emergency Response Task Force) and respond to the needs of the Russian Federation Institutions and Industry. Giorgio Balestrieri, E-POL Secretary-General announced that thanks to Mr. Mikhailevich support E-POL is discussing the formation of other E-POL National Centers and CERTFs in the other countries of the Eurasia E-Region that includes the CIS and the FSU. First in line is Mr. Vladimir Hnasevych, representing E-POL Ukraine National Center stating that Ukraine is planning to send to the E-POL International Academy at the Information Warfare Center of Excellence its contingent of Professionals for training.

E-POL is the world's first "Organization of Professionals" linked to a "Network of Businesses and Consumers" promoting the widest possible mutual assistance between institutions, corporations, consumers and all authorities to prevent crime and defeat the threats affecting E-Commerce World Trade within the limits of the laws existing in different countries.

The development of increasingly sophisticated computers systems has first seen the birth of a new breed of criminals. The constant growth of international electronic exchanges provides today more and more opportunities for criminal activity in a new domain, the E-Commerce. Such criminal activity has now reached alarming proportions. This leads us to a complex fundamental "Problem" with a new economy.

How to "Secure" the INDUSTRY and "Protect" the CONSUMER by

adopting generally accepted Common Ethics & Voluntary Standards After review of the fundamental processes of traditional trade we concluded that was time to create a "vehicle" for the members of the international community to express their views and participate in a global dialogue.

The "Solution" is two distinct yet intimately interconnected structures that create a web-based "E-Commerce Community" of "Professionals Members" and "Businesses & Consumers Members" working together to improve cooperation between world trade institutions, governmental agencies, professionals, businesses and consumers.

E-POL is the "vehicle" that dynamically leverages the strengths of its Professional Members to empower its Business/Consumer Members.

Offenses on the Internet can be classified as international because of the behavior of the offenders and the characteristics of their crime. Consequently, selected professionals such as corporate executives, senior agencies/organizations' officers, CIO's, CFO's, CPA's/comptrollers, corporate counsels, directors of security, database managers, and others with equivalent professional duties must work together with local/national police departments and INTERPOL in different countries, if they are to prevent and combat this new international crime successfully.

E-POL is the "E-Commerce World Trade Policing Organization" fostering an environment where communities from nations around the world (large and small, developed and emerging) can address important trade issues that affect us all.

SCOPE

The scope of E-POL is to support the E-Business Community in preventing crime and protecting World Trade. When necessary E-POL Professionals will cooperate with Law Enforcement, INTERPOL, WTO and other International Organizations or Agencies in accordance with the guiding principles listed below.

Universality

E-POL interests are strictly in support of E-Commerce and the World Trade. As an organization, E-POL has no positions on national, political, racial or religious interests. E-POL members as individuals are free to discuss and cooperate on all the universal subjects if they so desire. Geographic, national, political, racial, religious or linguistic factors or membership in E-POL must not impede universal cooperation in peace and understanding among individuals.

Respect for national sovereignty

E-POL cooperation is based on supporting law enforcement actions taken on behalf of E-Commerce and World Trade by the appropriate State/Country Authorities, operating within their own national boundaries and in accordance with their own national laws. Cooperation and active support with international bodies such as the WTO and the INTERPOL, with local police forces and/or national agencies are mandatory only for those E-POL members that may require such assistance. E-POL members must support the requests for assistance during a voluntary disclosure to the authorities with evidence of criminal activities and/or threats to the E-Commerce and World Trade.

Equality of all Members

E-POL members have the same rights, irrespective of the size of their own corporation/financial institution/agency, and/or financial contributions to the Organization. E-POL cooperation is voluntary and may be extended through each E-POL Center to any government agency, academia, institutions, corporations, and individuals concerned with monitoring and preventing criminal offences affecting E-Commerce and the World Trade.

PURPOSE

The purpose of E-POL is to foster business ethics and standards that take in account the wide variety of structures and trade methodologies in different geographical markets.

Education

In assisting, establishing, developing and promoting equivalent curriculums, E-POL will provide and/or will recommend specialized post-graduate professional advanced training for corporate executives, information technology and information security professionals, for managers of multinationals and global institutions, for selected professional members of law enforcement and governmental agencies worldwide.

Ethics and Standards

E-POL will endeavor to define generally accepted industry standards within the guidelines of its diverse membership community. In establishing/developing common ethics and industry standards, commercial institutions and governmental agencies will contribute to the prevention of E-Commerce World Trade crimes and offences. E-POL will provide assistance and referrals, when appropriate, for audit and compliance verification functions.

Operations

E-POL Operations, supporting internal audits and compliance or major case forensic investigations, are conducted only on specific request of the E-Business Community Members and strictly related to E-Commerce World Trade crime. The E-POL Professionals are available to work in support of Law Enforcement in securing computer operations from criminal activities, threats and offences in full respect of the host country/state/community laws. This is the only basis on which there can be agreement and cooperation between all Members.

DISCLAIMER

Background Information

The Internet is a new galaxy for all of us. With the development of new technologies and more efficient and faster ways of using them, the Internet has become a virtual paradigm of the new digital economy.

This new technological frontier offers enormous opportunities for both developed and modernizing countries alike. E-commerce means more choices, convenience and lower prices for consumers. It also provides new ways for businesses to grow and meet customer needs, and important benefits and cost-savings for governments and the people they serve.

As a result, the Internet has changed our lives and the way business is conducted. The Internet is a place where companies and consumers "attract", "interact" and "transact" without the need for a traditional "brick and mortar" environment. Today, corporations have become e-businesses, performing e-commerce, and competing for consumers on the virtual marketplace.

The development of increasingly sophisticated computers systems has first seen the birth of a new breed of criminals. The constant growth of international electronic exchanges provides today more and more opportunities for criminal activity in a new domain E-Commerce. Such criminal activity has now reached alarming proportions. This leads us to a complex fundamental "Problem" with a new economy.

How to "Secure" the INDUSTRY and "Protect" the CONSUMER

by adopting generally accepted Common Ethics & Voluntary Standards

The Internet will bring extraordinary and unique opportunities that the electronic commerce offers. But there remains much to be done in the way of improving access to the necessary infrastructure and user skills if these opportunities are to be realized. A key factor in the explosive growth of E-Commerce so far has been the relative lack of regulatory barriers. There are policy issues that need to be identified regarding the legal and regulatory framework for Internet transactions, security and privacy questions, taxation, access to the Internet, market access for suppliers over the Internet, trade facilitation, public procurement, intellectual property questions, and regulation of content.

After review of the fundamental processes of traditional trade we concluded that was time to create a vehicle for the E-Commerce Community Members to express their views and participate in a global dialogue.

Having considered the charter and the activities of various international bodies (in particular INTERPOL and WTO) we formed E-POL.ORG, Ltd. a global organization to be known as E-POL. To be a highly successful and effective organization, E-POL must be such vehicle and Empower its members with the tools to promote E-Commerce and E-Business.

As an Organization of Professionals (/) linked to a Network of Businesses & Consumers (http://e-pol.net/) E-POL will endeavor to promote solutions and strategies, common ethics and industry standards on the Internet in order to defeat threats and prevent crimes that may affect the E-Commerce World Trade, and protect the consumers.

The "Solution" is two distinct yet intimately interconnected structures that create a web-based "E-Commerce Community" of "Professionals Members" and "Businesses & Consumers Members" working together to improve cooperation between world trade institutions, governmental agencies, professionals, businesses and consumers.

E-POL is the vehicle that dynamically leverages the strengths of its Professional Members to empower its Business/Consumer Members.

"Secure the Industry and Protect the Consumers"

E-POL

E-POL is the "International E-Commerce World Trade Policing Organization" fostering an environment where communities from nations around the world (large and small, developed and emerging) can meet to address important trade issues that affect us all as consumers.

The Internet is perceived as Technology that connects a computer to other computers providing information. In reality, the Internet is an unprecedented Network of People and with its initiative E-POL is bringing millions of individuals together all having common interests regarding their professions, affiliations and life experiences.

E-POL recognizes the true value of the Internet:

E-POL will be the world's first "Organization of Professionals" linked to a "Network of Businesses and Consumers" on the Internet, bringing together the power of companies and people of a multi-faceted community dedicated to the protection of E-Commerce World Trade.

E-POL is a global organization of corporate executives and managers, legal counsels, security officers of institutions and agencies () linked to a network of businesses and consumers (http://e-pol.net). E-POL is promoting the widest possible mutual assistance between institutions, corporations, consumers and all authorities to protect E-Commerce World Trade within the limits of the laws existing in the different countries.

Offences on the Internet can be classified as international because of the behavior of the offenders and the characteristics of their crime. For instance, preparations for committing an offence such as hacking a bank or a company host or server may be made in one country while the actual offence is committed in one or more other countries. The offender(s) do not need to escape across a border after committing the offence, since the transfer of illicit gains can be sent abroad electronically, while the computer system used to commit the offence may be concealed in another country (e.g.: Illicit funds hacked from a US bank in New York, and transferred into an off-shore bank in the Caribbean, by a computer hacker in St. Petersburg, Russia). Tracing and arresting such offenders may prove extremely difficult; problems can arise in connection with exchanging information, identification, investigations and subsequent conviction.

Because of these problems, selected professionals such as corporate executives, senior agencies/organizations' officers, CIO's, CFO's, CPA's/comptrollers, corporate counsels, directors of security, database managers, and others with equivalent professional duties must work together with local/national police departments, INTERPOL in different countries, if they are to prevent and combat this new international crime successfully.

Geographic, national, political, racial, religious or linguistic factors or membership in E-POL must not impede universal cooperation in peace and understanding among individuals.

2.2 Respect for national sovereignty

E-POL cooperation is based on supporting law enforcement actions taken on behalf of e-commerce and world trade by the appropriate state/country authorities, operating within their own national boundaries and in accordance with their own national laws. Cooperation with, and active support for, international bodies such as INTERPOL and the WTO, local police forces, and/or national agencies are necessary only for those E-POL members who request assistance from such bodies. E-POL members must support the requests for assistance by way of a voluntary disclosure to the authorities of evidence of criminal activities and/or threats to e-commerce and world trade.

2.3 Equality of all Members

E-POL members have the same rights, irrespective of the size of their corporations/financial institutions/agencies, and/or financial contributions to the Organization.

Section 3: Purpose

The purpose of E-POL is to foster business ethics and standards that take into account the wide variety of structures and trade methodologies in different geographical markets.

In assisting, establishing, developing and promoting equivalent curriculums, E-POL will provide and/or will recommend specialized, post-graduate, advanced professional training for corporate executives, information technology & security professionals, managers of multinational enterprises and global institutions, selected members of law enforcement, and governmental agencies world-wide.

3.2 Ethics and Standards

E-POL will endeavor to define generally accepted industry ethics and standards within the parameters/constraints arising from its diverse membership community. In establishing/developing common ethics and industry standards, commercial enterprises and governmental institutions/agencies will contribute to the prevention of e-commerce and world-trade crimes and offenses. E-POL will provide assistance and referrals, when appropriate, for audit and compliance verification functions.

3.3 Operations

E-POL operations, supporting internal audits and compliance or major-case forensic investigations, are conducted only on specific requests from e-business community members and must be strictly related to e-commerce/world-trade crime.

APPENDIX A - WHO's WHO IN E-POL

E-POL Founder & Chairman Emeritus (Chair of the Advisory Board)

Inspector Joseph A. Sullivan, S.A. FBI (Ret.)

Founder of E-POL and Chairman Emeritus is Inspector Joseph A. Sullivan a former FBI Special Agent and a legend of the Bureau. He received a combined degree of Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Laws from the University of Wisconsin in 1941 and went to work for the FBI the same year. As a Special Agent with the Federal Bureau of Investigations, Joseph A. Sullivan helped solve some of the highest profile civil rights crimes of the 1960s. His 30-year law enforcement career reads like a social history of the latter part of this century. It began with National Security work during World War II, reached its peak during the civil unrest of the 1960s and culminated in solving a bombing spree that plagued New York City in the early 1970s. Inspector Sullivan worked in FBI offices from Florida to Alaska, ands served as an undercover agent in Colombia. Assigned to the New York City in 1946 he helped solve a truck theft operation of the Gambino crime family. Later after serving in Houston, Texas and Anchorage, Alaska, he was back in New York as a major case inspector.

Early in 1964, as President Lyndon B. Johnson was giving a speech in Florida, two railroad bridges were blown up nearby. President Johnson wanted the FBI to get the case, and Sullivan was called to Jacksonville where his investigation team identified the bombers and knew the time and location of the next strike, a bridge at night. During the night Sullivan crawled along the railroad bridge tracks until he found the explosive, set to go off when the train was on the bridge. Meanwhile, his fellow agents flagged down a train that was approaching the bridge, stopping it in time to let Sullivan remove the bomb.

It was in the south, deep in the throes of civil rights turmoil, that Joe Sullivan did see the fruits of his labor. One of his first tasks was to find out the state of preparedness of FBI offices in New Orleans and Memphis for what was expected to be a summer invasion of college students who would help blacks register to vote. In June 1964, three civil rights workers, Andrew Goodman, James Chaney and Michael Schwermer, were arrested by local authorities in Philadelphia, Mississippi, on suspicion of arson. They were released the same night, but admonished not to return to the town. But their car was later found ditched in a swamp, leading the FBI agents to a massive search for the three. The investigation led to two confessions and out of 17 suspects six were convicted on violation of civil rights charges. Mississippi Burning an Academy Winner movie, was the controversial fictionalization of the true story. Inspector Sullivan was also involved in solving the murder of the Reverend Martin Luther King Jr. Just before his retirement in 1971, Sullivan was back in New York, where he helped arrest Samuel Melville for a string of bombings.

Under his extraordinary leadership, over 80 defendants were charged with espionage, including the first KGB officers, the first FBI agents, the first CIA clandestine officers, and the first persons arrested for spying on behalf of China, Israel, and South Korea. In addition, Mr. Martin participated in negotiating the release of 40 persons and their families from foreign prisons, including the Nobel laureate Anatoly Sharansky who was released by the Soviet Union in February 1986. Mr. Martin is on the Board of Trustees and Chairman of the Economic Crime Investigation Institute Utica College of Syracuse University (ECII).

E-POL International Arbitration Center at Serko & Simon LLP

Serko & Simon LLP has represented a broad spectrum of participants in international trade, including importers, exporters, Customs brokers, freight forwarders, non-vessel operating common carriers, shippers, manufacturers, foreign governments, trade associations and individuals.

Because of the rapid changes occurring in this area of practice, particularly at this time of NAFTA and Mod Act implementation and Customs Reorganization, the firm actively attends and participates in trade seminars and Customs meetings. Among such activities, Senior partner David Serko, through his appointment to the Treasury Advisory Committee on Customs Commercial Operations ("COAC") by Treasury Secretary Robert E. Rubin, participates in the quarterly meetings of that select advisory panel. By participating in COAC meetings and other trade and governmental meetings, the firm is able to play an active role in the regulatory framework and to advise its clients through its ALERTs, and personal contacts of current and changing agency decisions, rules, regulations, legislation and judicial decisions affecting their businesses.

Serko & Simon LLP appears, on behalf of its clients, before the United States Customs Service in New York, Washington, D.C. and at ports throughout the country, the United States Court of International Trade, the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, the Federal District Courts and other courts of appropriate jurisdiction. The firm also represents clients in matters before the Office of the United States Trade Representative, the International Trade Commission, Food & Drug Administration, Federal Maritime Commission and other government agencies.

The New York office legal staff consists of seven lawyers. In addition to the four partners, the firm has two associates and one "Special Of Counsel." Other lawyers with unique qualifications serve in an Of Counsel capacity through our New York and other offices. Working in conjunction with the partners and associates are technical advisors who add a dimension to the firm's practice which has proven to be invaluable over the years.

While the world understands the concept of cyber terrorism and industrial espionage in general terms, there is a large gap in the defense mechanism for such activities, especially in the technical dimension. The technology explosion of the past few years has greatly improved the tools of the espionage trade. The ability to collect intellectual property information, plans and procedures, formula and designs frequently communicated by computers, computer networks, facsimiles, cellular telephones, wireless telephones and satellite linkages is commonplace. Today E-Business world needs a better level of protection that can be provided by professionals forged in the most demanding of competitive arenas.

Security Management International at the E-POL NAFTA Center maintains a quality capability through its principals, associates and partners to provide access to most, if not all, pertinent databases, information resources and analytical services. Additionally, SMI E-POL Professionals can provide technical surveillance countermeasures and forensic investigative support to determine possible telephone taps, room surveillance and physical surveillance. E-POL Professionals at SMI are similarly qualified to defeat communications intercepts and to protect the information that must be conveyed despite these threats. A particularly important function in the support of counterintelligence activities is in-depth knowledge and capability in communications and computers. SMI professionals have decades of tactical and strategic communications experience, with capabilities ranging from covert or clandestine operations in hazardous or denied areas, to creation of national telecommunications systems incorporating state of the art technologies. The complexity of integrated systems today almost always involves the use of computer systems and computer networks. As well as monitoring external systems, computer systems are used to provide data bases for intelligence analysis and for high-speed secure communications.

SMI offers significant development skills with computer systems running DOS, Windows and OS/2 environments in various local and wide area network configurations. SMI also provide computer system design and development services with an emphasis on providing practical solution-oriented systems. Many of SMI systems feature a high degree of integration with existing systems, including PC/LAN to mainframe connectivity. Additionally, SMI group partners and associates work with national laboratories to bring high technology into the market place. Training is similarly an integral part of SMI computer systems development capabilities. SMI has available for E-POL members advanced course material and classroom instruction to include hands-on workshops.

APPENDIX B - Frequently asked questions about E-POL

1. Is E-POL an international police force?

No. E-POL is an International Organization of Professionals for the prevention of E-Commerce World Trade crimes. As such will foster and coordinate voluntary co-operation between its members and INTERPOL and/or WTO and local law enforcement.

2. Does E-POL actually investigate cases?

Yes. Usually investigations or audits are conducted internally not outside an organization, institution and/or corporation by the CIOs, Corporate Security Officers, in compliance with their ethics and internal security policy standards. When necessary members can voluntarily cooperate together to prevent a crime or react to a threat to their organization(s), institution(s), corporation(s). Once evidence is available on a potential crime the E-POL member may voluntarily co-operate with national police forces under their own sovereign laws. Only when necessary E-POL members may play a vital role in voluntarily supply evidence of criminal information of a transnational nature to INTERPOL and national police forces.

3. How does E-POL & E-POL Centers fund their activities?

Annual fees from the E-POL Professional Membership, revenues from Operations and special training conducted on specific request of members and non-members; annual fees from the E-Business Directory Listing.

4. What are the capabilities of an E-POL Center?

An E-POL Center is generally headquartered in a central location of the region, and hosted by a reputable and financially independent company/entity willing and able to coordinate with the E-POL Secretariat the relations with the E-POL Professionals. Each E-POL Regional/Country/State Center is required to have:

• Strong links with local authorities, academia and trade organizations;

• Independent support for customs and trade law arbitration;

• Experience in Computer Systems & Services;

• Advanced Computer & Communication Equipment;

• Professional Staff (Computer Science/Scientists) and access to Forensic Personnel (from Military, Law Enforcement or Financial Institutions);

• Capabilities in providing first level training (local curriculums) in the Universities and/or other Institutions in the region/country/state.

• Capabilities to support or to directly organize advanced professional training courses in the region/country/state.

5. How does E-POL contribute to the prevention of E-Crime?

In encouraging member and non-members to adopt a coordinated and uniform approach in training, common ethics & industry standards. In educating the E-Business Community to recognize and prevent E-Commerce crimes, accidents and threats.

           E-POL Network 

At the core of E-POL is the development of two distinct yet intimately interconnected structures that create a unique Organization of Professional and a Network of Businesses & Consumers.

The dynamics of E-POL are in the convergence of the two sides of the multi-faceted organization, the Professionals on one side, and the Businesses & Consumers on the other, both members of the E-Commerce Community. E-POL dynamically leverages the strengths of its Professional Members to empower its Business & Consumer Members.

E-COMMERCE COMMUNITY MEMBERS

E-POL is a web-based E-Commerce Community of E-POL Professionals Members & E-POL Business/Consumer Members, two distinct yet intimately interconnected membership structures. The E-POL business model will allow E-Commerce Community Members to "search" - "attract"- "interact" & "transact" without the need for a traditional "brick & mortar" environment.

The number of E-POL Professional Members is somehow limited since to join they must be professionally qualified, sponsored and trained by the corporations, institutions and/or agencies they work for. Because E-POL communities are interconnected, E-POL expects its Network of Business & Consumers to grow through its unique membership program.

To make this functionally attractive and applicable to all its members, E-POL established two different communities: the Organization of E-POL Professionals members and the Network of the E-POL Businesses/Consumers members.

E-POL PROFESSIONALS MEMBERS

The E-POL Professional are corporate executives and managers (CIOs, CFOs, CPAs/Comptrollers, Corporate legal Counsels and/or Directors of Security, Database Managers) Officers of Institutions and/or Agencies with equivalent background and duties, that have received senior level (post-graduate) training, credits and certifications. To be an active E-POL Professional the member must be part of the staff of a corporation, institution or governmental agency (on the payroll as an employee or under contract as a consultant).

Each E-POL Professional will operate strictly within their own corporation conducting internal audits and compliance in accordance with their corporate ethics and internal security standards. Only when necessary and when authorized by their corporation E-POL Professionals will cooperate with other corporations, domestic and international law enforcement professionals in order to assist in identifying threats and criminals/fraudulent activities affecting the E-Commerce Community. E-POL Professional Members will endeavor in sharing E-Commerce "best practice" models, technology solutions, E-Commerce strategies, development of standard E-Commerce business protocols, and participate in "on-line" discussions regarding the latest systems infrastructure, security systems and software. E-POL Professional categories and qualification are listed in the E-POL Professional Organization.

E-POL BUSINESSES/CONSUMERS MEMBERSHIP

E-POL recognizes the true power and value of the Internet lies in the people who have taken ownership of their community because of their sense of commitment towards their own personal interest. The E-POL site will contain a dynamic exchange of practical wisdom whereby the businesses and consumers will have the opportunity to interact in meaningful value-added discussions on a variety of products and services. The industry and the consumers will be able to access the ratings from thousands of E-Commerce Community members on products and services. Consumer Members will be able to make sound purchase decisions. The system will guide the Members through the on-line Internet maze showing a clear road map of contextual hyperlinks and e-commerce partnership links.

E-Pol. Org

STATUS

E-Pol is an ad hoc commission created by the organizations members of the UNNET (http://www.un-net . org), a joint network organization created by the Stockholm Protocol of 2001 between the Development Aid Institute (Organization Nr 848001-1124) and the Worldwide Disaster Aid (Organization Nr 848001-0076) from Sweden with the purpose of joining resources and efforts in their humanitarian operations. The UNNET has now diverse humanitarian organizations members and a diversity of commissions and programmes. With the unofficial endorsement and help of some international organizations, UNNET has established itself internationally in a most quiet but effective way.

HISTORY

Between 2001 and 2005, each organization member of UNNET needed to endure their own fight against cyber attacks. In 2005, through the Brussels Protocol in Security Cooperation, the organizations members of UNNET created E-POL with the purpose and scope of protecting the organizations and their staff from cyberterrorism, cyberharassment and data crime. E-Pol became endowed with all necessary powers for its task and established close links with all data crime agencies and authorities, coordinating when necessary, investigations in more than one jurisdiction. Former members of E-Pol Ltd, a US based task force which offices were destroyed in the September 11 2001 attack to the World Trade Center Towers, provided cooperation and advise in the development of the new E-Pol which in spite of having some similar methods, is not related with its former homonymous. The organization has also the permanent advice and cooperation of high ranking law enforcement officers in diverse countries.

SCOPE AND PURPOSE

The scope of E-POL is to prevent data crime and cyberattacks in all forms against the organizations members of UNNET and their staff, and since 2006 has extended its assistance to diverse humanitarian and cultural foundations, institutes and universities participating of UNNET programmes. E-Pol is set to cooperate with Law Enforcement, INTERPOL, WTO and other International Organizations or with no national, political, racial or religious interests in a frame of respect for national sovereignty.

E-POL conducts and coordinates operations, investigations, audits and forensic investigations when required.
