Abstract:
On August 12, 2026, President Donald Trump issued a presidential memorandum establishing a federal program under which vetted United States companies may conduct Cyber Surveillance Operations and Cyber Effects Operations against foreign Cyber-Enabled Transnational Criminal Organizations (CE-TCOs). The first are covert intrusions to collect intelligence; the second are operations that disrupt, degrade, or destroy a target’s systems.
