The search for dark matter particles at the LHC is one of its primary objectives. Well-motivated scenarios, such as the Hidden Abelian Higgs Model (HAHM) and Dark Supersymmetry (Dark-SUSY) scenarios predict the production of dark sector particles. These particles interact weakly with the Standard Model (SM) and, due to their interactions, can decay into SM particles. A key signature of these searches is the decay of such particles into a pair of muons (dimuons) displaced from the primary interaction vertex. Results obtained from the Run-2 and Run-3 data-taking campaigns at CMS have set limits on the production of these particles. These results are presented as a compilation of dark sector searches conducted in CMS, providing a comprehensive overview of current constraints. Additionally, the implications of these findings for future analyses are discussed.
