Built for the fincrime practitioner, the workshop is designed to give you practical knowledge that enhances your ability to detect and prevent financial crime tied to crypto, whether you are in a bank, a crypto exchange, law enforcement or other organization.

The focus is less on how cryptocurrencies work and the underlying technology and more on legitimate crypto business models, illicit use of crypto, and the fundamentals of crypto investigation, with a heavy emphasis on the connections between the crypto world and the traditional financial system.

Whether you’re analyzing customer risk, investigating a fraud case, or following up on an alert, you’re working each day to secure the financial system from the worst elements of the criminal underworld. At this event attendees were challenged to find creative ways to think like a financial criminal and identify weak points in your program before they’re exploited by bad actors.
