A/74/120 January 2019, the National Congress passed Act No. 27.482, amending the Federal Code of Criminal Procedure, which now includes tools for obtaining digital evide nce (interception of digital communications, data recording and retention, and computer systems). Work is currently under way on a draft law to amend the Criminal Code, which will criminalize a number of information technology-related offences, in particular, damaging critical infrastructure. In order to increase capacity to combat cybercrime, the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights, with the support of international bodies such as the Organization of American States (OAS) and the Council of Europe, gave a number of training workshops on cybercrime, processing of digital evidence and modern investigation methods, for actors in the criminal justice system. The workshops were held in various regions of the country, and were aimed at judges, prosecutors and members of the federal and provincial security forces. From 2016 to now, almost 500 judges and prosecutors throughout the country have participated in these training programmes. One of the objectives of the Argentine Digital Agenda, adopted by Decree No. 996/2018, is to develop cybersecurity capacity in order to create trust in digital environments. In this connection, to strengthen capacity for awareness -raising on the risks of using social media and the Internet, with a focus on the general population, and particularly the groups considered to be at risk, programmes have been developed to train trainers, in collaboration with the Punto Digital programme. Topics including cyberbullying, grooming, phishing, cybersecurity, and strategies for the care and containment of victims and the prevention and detection of computer-related crime, have been addressed, with a focus on youth, adolescents and older adults. With respect to the protection of personal data, Argentina was one of the first countries of the region to have a regulatory framework for the protection of personal data, through the adoption of Act No. 25.326. Argentina has acceded to the Council of Europe Convention for the Protection of Individuals with regard to Automatic Processing of Personal Data. On 1 June 2019, the Convention for the Protection of Individuals with regard to Automatic Processing of Personal Data, and its Additional Protocol, will enter into force in the Argentine Republic. Measures taken to promote international cooperation in the field of information security Argentina promotes the establishment of agreements at the bilateral, regional and multilateral levels intended to contribute to making cyberspace peaceful and secure, and seeks to participate in all the work of international agencies in the area of cybersecurity and to participate actively in all the international academic and technical spheres where cybersecurity is addressed. In this regard, Argentina is actively engaged in the activities of the Cybercrime Convention Committee, and supports States that are not yet parties but want to accede to the Convention. Among the tangible advantages that this treaty offers its members is inclusion in the 24/7 Network, which provides a channel for assistance and facilitates criminal investigations between States parties. However, taking into account the transnational nature of cybercrime and the need for mechanisms to enable a global response, Argentina supports both the processes under the Convention on Cybercrime, and the discussion forums that seek to advance, within the framework of the United Nations, towards the negotiation of an universal legal framework in this area (the Vienna process). 4/39 19-10580
