On cybersecurity, Europol has called for tough new legalisation to tackle cyber crime at the end of a 12-month period that saw the scale, rate and spread of hacker activity reach unprecedented levels : Ransomware has emerged as the top cybercrime recently; WannaCry and Petya ransomware attacks had crippled many firms lately; a "growing sophistication in the cybercrime community". In addition, Cyber criminals are now able to access ATMs through bank networks, according to the report<https://documents.trendmicro.com/assets/white_papers/wp-cashing-in-on-atm-malware.pdf> by Europol’s European Cybercrime Centre<https://www.europol.europa.eu/track/click/1079/1924>. Furthemore, The United States has asked China not to implement its new cyber security law over concerns it could damage global trade in services, a U.S. document published by the World Trade Organization showed on Tuesday. On cyber geopolitics, executives from Facebook, Alphabet's Google and Twitter have been asked to testify before the U.S. Congress in coming weeks as lawmakers probe Russia's alleged interference in the 2016 U.S. election, committee sources said on Wednesday.
