With a law enforcement mission, this federal agency finds and brings to justice national and international criminal enterprises that engage in activities such as money laundering, narcotics smuggling, human trafficking, illegal arms dealing, intellectual property theft, etc. Within this agency are teams that investigate cyber-enabled crimes. “Team NXS,” which became a formal group in 2019, focuses on cyber crimes that involve unauthorized access, either to steal intellectual property, to exfiltrate sensitive, national security data, or to conduct other criminally motivated operations.
