The FBI's commitment to defending the homeland extends beyond getting violent criminals off our streets -- it also means protecting our infrastructure and communities via the cyber landscape. #FBIChicago is playing a critical role in Operation Riptide. This 60-day, coordinated law enforcement campaign targets criminal actors, the key services they rely on, and their infrastructure, to include, tools and services, communications platforms, and money.

By presenting at events like the pictured Society of Information Management Cyber Threat Landscape 2026 Summit, FBI personnel work to ensure that threat trends, warning signs, and safety procedures are widely shared with community partners and private-sector industries.

Your safety is our priority. To learn more about Operation Riptide, visit https://t.co/HvfQoxeFT7.

Today marks an important milestone for #FBIChicago — our personnel have successfully brought back @FBIMostWanted fugitive, Arnoldo Jimenez, from Mexico. The FBI thanks our partners at FBI Legat Mexico City, La Agencia de Investigación Criminal-INTERPOL, and Burbank Police Department for their valued work throughout this case.

Jimenez was wanted in connection with the murder of Estrella Carrera who was found deceased less than 48 hours after their wedding. No matter how much time has passed or where a criminal may be in the world, the FBI will never stop in our pursuit of justice.
