The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has replaced its Crypto Assets and Cyber Unit with the newly formed Cyber and Emerging Technologies Unit (CETU), continuing its shift in approach to regulating digital assets and combating cyber-enabled financial crimes.
Announced on Feb. 20, the unit will focus on addressing misconduct involving artificial intelligence, blockchain fraud, social media manipulation, and cybersecurity compliance failures.

Laura D’Allaird, formerly deputy director of the SEC’s Division of Enforcement, will lead the CETU as its inaugural chief. The unit comprises 30 attorneys and fraud specialists across nine SEC regional offices, consolidating expertise in fintech, cybersecurity, and digital asset markets.
Acting SEC Chair Mark Uyeda emphasized that the CETU will collaborate with Commissioner Hester Peirce’s Crypto Task Force to “deploy enforcement resources judiciously” while fostering innovation. U
