Serious and organised crime undermines our national security, erodes our economy, and threatens community safety. It poses a grave and enduring threat to Australia. It is estimated to cost Australia up to $82.3 billion each year, representing enormous profits for the heads of organised crime networks at the expense of community safety and wellbeing.
Our unique, actionable and insightful intelligence on serious and organised crime threats impacting Australia plays a critical role in bringing together law enforcement, intelligence, regulatory and policy partners to build coordinated strategies to counter the threat.
We use a range of specialist capabilities, including coercive powers, technical intelligence, human intelligence and data analytics, to collect and analyse information to discover new criminal threats and insights about the criminal environment. This criminal intelligence builds awareness and influences strategies that harden the environment and create new opportunities to combat serious and organised crime impacting Australia.
