Technological Crime Unit

The VPD Technological Crime Unit provides computer forensic and internet investigative assistance to members of the Vancouver Police Department.

Investigators examine computers and/or mobile devices if they are believed to have been used as a tool to commit a criminal offence, or to store information storage related to a crime.

Other investigations include when a computer is victimized, such as unauthorized access, or mischief to data.

The Unit also assists other police officers with their online investigations where the offence originates in Vancouver or the victim resides in Vancouver.
