The U.S. Justice Department has established the National Security Cyber Section, called NatSec Cyber, to combat state-sponsored hackers from China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea.
The new unit aims to increase the department’s ability to disrupt cyber campaigns, prosecute nation-state cybercriminals, and address cyber threats to national security.
The creation of NatSec Cyber follows concerns over the growing threat posed by state-sponsored hackers and recent cyberattacks attributed to China, North Korea, and Russia. The unit will play a crucial role in responding to evolving cyber threats and protecting national security.
