A trusted alliance OF BUSINESS & LAW ENFORCEMENT WORKING TOGETHER TO DISRUPT CYBERCRIME.

A United Front

The National Cyber-Forensics and Training Alliance (NCFTA) was formed in 2002. It serves one essential purpose: to provide a trusted, confidential forum where private sector and law enforcement can work together to identify and disrupt today’s most pressing cyber-related threats. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we offer a neutral setting that’s essential to sharing openly, learning mutually, and defending collectively. We are a community of the committed, not the curious.

What We Do

PARTNERING WITH COMPANIES IN FINANCIAL, Technology, RETAIL, Manufacturing, HEALTHCARE AND OTHER SECTORS.

A highly skilled team of committed MEMBERS

We treat our Members as “partners” due to the collaborative nature of our work. They come from Fortune 500 companies and other cross-sector businesses, government agencies, and a select number of academic programs.

We provide a team of cross-functional NCFTA intelligence analysts, in-person venues and workspaces, and secure virtual communication channels (i.e. intelligence sharing infrastructure), which foster a community of collaboration and trust. The NCFTA and our Members have no agenda other than to share what’s emerging, what’s working, and ultimately disrupt the most urgent cyber-enabled threats to individuals, corporations, and even national security.
