CYBER RIGHTS HELPLINE
We offer support to victims of online threats, abuse and cybercrime. Our team carefully assesses each case and offers tailored services, in line with our internal policies, to meet a range of needs.
Online disinformation — spread through fake news, fake accounts, and automated bots — can shape public discourse and disseminate misleading content, especially in the political sphere. CRO analyzes and monitors these dynamics to detect coordinated campaigns and promote greater transparency in the digital space.
Learn moreData breaches and leaks can expose personal and sensitive information, with serious consequences for the security and privacy of individuals and organizations. CRO monitors and analyzes data leak incidents to assess their impact, raise awareness, and help prevent future breaches.
Learn moreDigital rights protect a person's integrity and dignity online — from privacy and the right to be forgotten, to protection against deepfakes and biometric identity theft. CRO supports victims of violations by activating procedures for the rectification and deletion of unlawfully processed data, in line with European fundamental rights frameworks.
Learn moreFake accounts are inauthentic profiles used to manipulate public opinion, spread disinformation, or carry out scams through phishing and luring techniques. CRO analyzes these networks of artificial identities, supports victims of manipulation, and promotes tools for digital identity recognition and protection.
Learn moreFake news is content designed to manipulate perceptions and emotions, spread through social media and messaging platforms. Generative AI makes it increasingly difficult to detect. CRO analyzes disinformation, identifies information laundering, and supports those targeted by false stories built to damage their reputation.
Learn moreRansomware is malicious software that locks or encrypts files, demanding a ransom to restore access. It can affect both individuals and organizations, causing data loss and financial damage. CRO provides immediate support, advice on how to respond, strategies to minimize impact, and guidance on preventing future attacks.
Learn moreSextortion is a form of blackmail in which someone threatens to share intimate images or videos to extort money, additional content, or favors. It exploits fear and shame, causing severe emotional distress. CRO provides confidential support, helping victims manage the situation, protect their privacy, and put a stop to the abuse.
Learn moreDeep fake porn uses artificial intelligence to superimpose a person's face onto fabricated pornographic content, causing serious reputational damage, emotional trauma, and blackmail. CRO supports victims in removing the content and provides legal assistance against those who create or distribute it.
Learn moreSocial bots are automated accounts that simulate human behavior to manipulate online discourse, artificially amplify content, and manufacture false consensus through astroturfing. CRO monitors these automation networks, analyzes coordinated campaigns, and supports those who fall victim to manipulation or reputational attacks.
Learn moreThis crime involves child sexual abuse material and the exploitation of minors, causing severe trauma. CRO works alongside law enforcement and supports victims and families in removing harmful content, reporting abuse, and preventing further harm.
Learn moreDoxing is the unauthorized disclosure of personal information — such as a person's address or phone number — exposing victims to risks of identity theft, harassment, or physical harm. CRO supports victims in removing their data from the internet, protecting their privacy, and taking legal action against those responsible.
Learn moreCybercrime encompasses digital fraud, identity theft, ransomware attacks, cyber espionage, and the production of illegal content. Cybercrimes are growing exponentially, fueled by the illicit use of artificial intelligence. CRO supports victims, assists in investigations, and promotes prevention against every form of cybercriminal activity.
