The supporting CID unit may be able to assist both in identifying crime conducive conditions that increase the risk of compromise of critical information, and in mitigating or eliminating the criminal threat.

Non-state actors

These adversaries do not have a formal and recognized government and are international or transnational in nature, and as a result, they are difficult to identify and locate. They do not employ traditional military forces or intelligence services.
