Rubio unveils visa restrictions targeting cybercrime networks

Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced on Thursday a new visa restriction policy targeting foreign nationals responsible for or complicit in cybercrime and cyber-enabled crime.

"This policy targets individuals responsible for, or complicit in, cybercrime and cyber-enabled crime, such as those involved in cyberscams, and sextortion," Rubio said in a statement.

Certain immediate family members of people covered by the policy may also be subject to the State Department's new visa restrictions, according to Rubio.
