Saudi Arabia: Cybercrime & Cybersecurity Agencies

In Saudi Arabia, technical cyber incidents go to the national CERT below. We could not confirm a dedicated police cybercrime unit.

National CERT / cybersecurity authority

National Cybersecurity Authority (NCA), Saudi CERT

Official website

Notes

  • NCA listed as a national cybersecurity authority and accredited team by FIRST and Trusted Introducer; Ministry of Interior cybercrime unit could not be confirmed (moi.gov.sa unreachable).
  • No dedicated police cybercrime unit was confirmed; the Ministry of Interior Cyber Crime Reports service is listed on the national portal my.gov.sa (also via Absher and Kollona Amn), but that site returned 403 so it was seen only in search listings.

Lost money? Call your bank first

The bank can often stop a transfer if it hears from you quickly. See the official fraud lines in how to report bank fraud in Saudi Arabia.
