Project

The SIRIUS project, co-implemented by Eurojust and Europol, is a central reference point in the EU for knowledge sharing on cross-border access to electronic evidence. It offers a variety of services, such as guidelines, trainings and tools, to help with accessing data held by online service providers.

Outcome:

The SIRIUS project, in cooperation with UNODC, UNCTED, CEPOL and the EuroMed Justice and EuroMed Police projects, has developed a set of stand-alone model forms for national authorities seeking to send data preservation and data disclosure requests to service providers via voluntary cooperation.

The SIRIUS platform hosts several products, such as:

Guidelines of more than 40 OSPs for data disclosure based on voluntary cooperation and Mutual Legal Assistance
IT tools facilitating the structuring and interpretation of electronic data
Discussion forums: common and restricted forums for members of the judiciary and law enforcement authorities, including an SPOC network
Webinars and training materials for judicial and law enforcement authorities
Factsheets on legal concepts and instruments related to electronic evidence
