FBI Cyber Strategy goes from defense to disruption
The FBI’s new cyber strategy shifts the focus toward actively disrupting adversaries, dismantling infrastructure, seizing funds and imposing real costs on attackers. Four pillars drive the strategy: disrupt cyber adversaries, support victims, strengthen partnerships, and enhance the FBI’s own cyber capabilities.
Rapid intelligence sharing and closer public-private cooperation should help organizations detect attacks earlier, contain incidents and recover faster.
The FBI will invest heavily in cyber talent, advanced technical tools and post-quantum readiness to keep pace with increasingly sophisticated threats.
AI, including agentic AI, will play a central role in malware analysis, attribution, threat detection and scaling defensive and disruptive operations.
