The Center for Cybercrime Studies at John Jay College of Criminal Justice and the National Cyber-Forensics and Training Alliance (NCFTA) are offering a training webinar on “Cyber-Enabled Firearms Trafficking.” 

Clearnet and darknet spaces are used to advertise, procure, sell, and transfer firearms and firearms-related knowledge and technology. This webinar introduces participants to cyber-enabled firearms trafficking, particularly the types of firearms trafficked online, the clearnet and darknet spaces where this form of trafficking occurs, and the firearm knowledge and technology transferred within these spaces. Special attention will be paid to auto sears/switches and ghost gun blueprints and kits. 

The webinar is funded by the U.S. Bureau of Justice Assistance and is only open to U.S. state, local, tribal, and territorial law enforcement, prosecutors, and judges.
