Confronting Transnational Criminal Organizations

The United States Coast Guard is working to prevent transnational criminal organizations from exploiting maritime infrastructure, transportation, commerce, and trade in the Western Hemisphere, using the objectives set out in the 2011 Strategy to Combat Transnational Organized Crime. The Coast Guard is working with other federal agencies to strengthen the ability of law enforcement and foreign intelligence programs to collect and analyze information about criminal network activities to identify patterns, partnerships, capabilities, and operating areas. Intelligence will help the Coast Guard anticipate threats.
