This includes disabling cell phone towers, enabling denial of services attacks and facilitating anonymous, encrypted communication between potential threat actors and criminal enterprises.\u00a0&#8220;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;While forensic examination of these devices is ongoing, early analysis indicates cellular communications between nation-state threat actors and individuals that are known to federal law enforcement,&#8221; it also said.<\/p>\n<p>The Department of Homeland Security\u2019s Homeland Security Investigations, the Department of Justice, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the New York Police Department and other state and local law enforcement partners are assisting with the investigation.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The potential for disruption to our country\u2019s telecommunications posed by this network of devices cannot be overstated,&#8221; U.S. Secret Service Director Sean Curran said. &#8220;The U.S. Secret Service\u2019s protective mission is all about prevention, and this investigation makes it clear to potential bad actors that imminent threats to our protectees will be immediately investigated, tracked down and dismantled.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Secret Service also said: &#8220;Given the timing, location and potential for significant disruption to New York telecommunications posed by these devices, the agency moved quickly to disrupt this network.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><i>This is a developing story.
