The bill SB 1859 establishes a new Cyber Crime and Fraud Unit within the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation. It outlines the unit's purpose and duties, including improving the Bureau's ability to investigate cyber-related crimes. Importantly, the bill clarifies that this new unit does not expand the Bureau's existing jurisdiction.
