cybercrime countermeasures

The Italian term "presidi" refers to any kind of measure to prevent cybercrime activities like software, hardware, security management, procedures, security rules, competent organization, and so on.

A cyber countermeasure is defined as an action, process, technology, device, or system that serves to prevent or mitigate the effects of a cyber attack against a computer, server, network or associated device

devices/tools to prevent cybercrime

Tool is generic (software or hardware), device is more specific to hardware (like a router with firewall etc).

agree Shabelula : fight against rather than prevention: contrasto, just to keep it literal

"fighting against" and "prevention" are two different things. One is active (fight), the other is passive (defend). Nations fight cyber crime, companies generally defend against. It's like fire: fire prevention or fire fighting.
neutral philgoddard : It's organisations rather than tools, surely.
