Text

Investigations of national-security-related cyber or cyber-enabled crimes fall within the scope of chapter

9-90.000

of this Manual. That chapter of the Manual describes the work of the National Security Division (NSD) and the National Security Cyber Specialists (NSCS) Network.

CCIPS, the CHIP network, NSD, and the NSCS network all support each other in the execution of their respective cyber and cyber-enabled crime responsibilities.

At the discretion of U.S. Attorneys, CHIP AUSA(s) can serve as the NSCS AUSA(s).
