BASSETERRE, St. Kitts – Law enforcement and government officials along 

with Information Technology specialists convened at the Royal St. Kitts 

Marriott Resort for a three-day conference which addressed Digital

The discussions began on Tuesday, October 21 and drew participants from

explained that the programme was an overview on cyber-terrorism but also 

includes an overview of cybercrime in general.
