CSI: Cyber is a drama inspired by the advanced technological work of real-life cyber psychologist Mary Aiken. Special Agent Avery Ryan heads the Cyber Crime Division of the FBI, a unit at the forefront of solving illegal activities that start in the mind, live online, and play out in the real world. She knows firsthand how today’s technology allows people to hide in the shadows of the internet and commit serious crimes of global proportion. While other agents search for criminals in dark homes and alleys, Ryan and her team search the dark net, a place deep in the bowels of the internet where criminals are anonymous, money is untraceable and where everything is for sale with just a keystroke.
