In a significant step towards enhancing digital security, Morocco’s General Directorate of National Security (DGSN) unveiled a new platform named “E-Blagh” during the 5th edition of its Open Days (JPO), coinciding with the 68th anniversary of the DGSN’s establishment.
Developed by experts from National Security and Territorial Surveillance, E-Blagh aims to engage internet users in the fight against cybercrime. “This platform enables users to report illegal online content 24/7, whether they are victims or simply aware of it,” said Laila Zouine, Principal Commissioner and head of the criminal evidence and photography department at the central directorate of the judicial police at the DGSN. The reported offenses can range from online fraud and child sexual exploitation to sextortion, terrorism, hate speech, and threats of violence.
Zouine, who also oversees the cybercrime booth at the JPO, highlighted the platform’s role in educating the public about various forms of cybercrime and prevention strategies. The booth offers workshops and informational brochures to increase awareness and provide practical tips.
The 5th edition of the DGSN Open Days was officially inaugurated on Thursday evening in Agadir under the theme “National Security: Citizenship and Solidarity.” This annual event, running until May 21, aims to inform the public about the DGSN’s modernization efforts to ensure the safety of individuals and property, and to maintain public order.
The launch of E-Blagh represents a proactive approach by the DGSN to involve the community in its efforts to combat the growing threat of cybercrime, reflecting a commitment to both national security and citizen engagement.
