The U.S. Justice Department is creating a cybersecurity unit within its Computer Crime and Intellectual Property Section. The unit’s prosecutors would work with the private sector to expedite cooperation to battle cybercrime. Cybersecurity-related crimes are extremely important in their own right; it makes sense to create a unit dedicated to cybersecurity issues. It was unclear in Caldwell’s remarks how the new unit would have an impact on DoJ’s cybercrime prosecutions. Neither Caldwell nor DoJ provided details about the cybersecurity unit, such as how many lawyers and other staffers would be assigned to it.”]
