On October 6, six people were arrested in an operation targeting the storage of child sexual abuse material in Santa Catarina. The operation, named Griffin, was coordinated by CyberGaeco with support from the U.S. Embassy’s Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) and the use of CRC Technology.

Along with the arrests, eight search and seizure warrants were executed in various cities across the state. The timing of the operation, just one day before Children’s Day, highlights the authorities’ commitment to protecting children from sexual exploitation, according to the Public Ministry of Santa Catarina, which oversees CyberGaeco. This agency, linked to the Public Prosecutor’s Office, is focused on combating cybercrimes.
