Novell UK today gave details of a major sponsorship arrangement with The National Criminal Intelligence Service (NCIS) for the publication of NCIS's Trawler Report, the long-awaited strategic criminal assessment on Internet and computer crime. The report will be available on 9th June, 1999. The agreement, set up between Mark Steels, head of corporate communications at NCIS and Martin Smith, Novell licensing manager for EMEA, allows for the publication of an unclassified version of the report in addition to the restricted document aimed at law enforcement practitioners. "As a leading provider of Internet security products Novell is pleased to lend its backing to a publication as important as the Trawler Report," said Martin Smith. "The public interest in this field of criminality is phenomenal and the report will give an eye-opening account of how new technology is being abused for criminal ends and will stimulate debate about the ways in which such activity may be eliminated or contained." Announcing the deal at today's 25th European Heads of National Drugs Services Conference being hosted by NCIS in Edinburgh, Mark Steels said: "This is an excellent opportunity for us. Our reputation for producing strategic criminal threat assessments of great quality continues to grow, and Novell's support allows us to reach many more people."
