A warrant may be sealed to protect the integrity of an ongoing investigation, preventing the disclosure of sensitive information that could compromise law enforcement efforts or endanger individuals involved. Sealing a warrant also helps safeguard the privacy of individuals who have not been charged with a crime, preventing potential reputational harm. Additionally, it may be used to ensure that a suspect does not flee or destroy evidence before law enforcement can act.
