New Law Combatting Cybercrime Set to Enter Into Force
A new law aimed at aiding the authorities in stepping up action against cybercriminals will enter into force on Aug 1, the justice minister said.

The package of laws whose drafts were submitted to parliament by the justice ministry in cooperation with the national economy ministry, the central bank and the Hungarian Banking Association in the spring are the first pieces of legislation to come out of the government’s “intensive efforts” to combat online fraud, Bence Tuzson told a press conference.

The package is aimed at speeding up criminal investigations and proceedings, he added.
