Bahrain: Cybercrime & Cybersecurity Agencies

In Bahrain, cybercrime against people goes to the police cybercrime unit, and technical incidents go to the national CERT.

Part of: Ministry of Interior

Official website

National CERT / cybersecurity authority

National Cyber Security Center (NCSC)

Official reporting page for Bahrain.

https://www.acees.gov.bh/acees-form/

Notes

NCSC site opened (strategy 2025-2028); Ministry of Interior cybercrime unit could not be confirmed because the ministry sites were unreachable.
The national portal's Reporting Cybercrimes page lists this ACEES online form, hotline 992 and WhatsApp; acees.gov.bh itself was unreachable so the form link was taken from the bahrain.bh portal.
