Dashboard FAQs

 
  • This dashboard shows aggregated insights from anonymised cybercrime victim case descriptions submitted via The Cyber Helpline’s chatbot. It highlights trends such as attack types, demographics, victim–perpetrator relationships, and platforms or services referenced in reported incidents.

  • All data is sourced from case descriptions from The Cyber Helpline’s chatbot data. No external data sources are included.

  • You can explore case data from March 2023 to present day. The data is updated on a monthly basis.

  • Cases were cleaned to remove duplicates, incomplete records, and spam messages. Personally identifiable information was removed before analysis with a dedicated Python library. Classifications were made using a bespoke large language model (LLM) prompt. The model currently used is ChatGPT 4.1

  • Internal testing shows the classification process performs very well overall. However, mistakes are possible, particularly where case descriptions are brief, vague, or ambiguous. The data should be interpreted as indicative rather than definitive.

  • All personally identifiable information is removed using a dedicated Python library before any AI processing takes place. The dashboard only displays aggregated, anonymised data and cannot be used to identify individuals.

    • Data is limited to users who chose to report incidents via the chatbot.

    • Classifications are model-generated and may contain errors.

    • Reporting behaviour and chatbot usage can influence trends.

  • Data is only available when there is sufficient volume or data quality to support meaningful analysis. In other cases, data may be restricted due to privacy considerations, limited availability, or because certain features are still under development.

  • Monthly.
