Cybercop

The U.S. "Report to the President's Commission on Critical Infrastructure Protection" (1997) stated, "Cybercops are law enforcement personnel whose beat is cyberspace." According to Microsoft's Justice and Public Safety Division (Microsoft) Marketing Manager Ken Reeves, over 2,000 (international) law enforcement organizations had connected to the internet by 1996. Reeves noted: "The Internet is another protective device, just like the bulletproof vest."
