In recent years, criminal organizations in Mexico have significantly modernized their strategies for recruitment, drug trafficking, and fighting rival organizations. From using video games to lure new members to entering the world of cryptocurrency, cartels continue to evolve and expand their criminal enterprises.
Groups such as the Sinaloa and Jalisco cartels have also invested heavily in drones, using them to launch attacks against rival organizations and monitor the movements of Mexican and U.S. agents near the border.
