🚨 The world’s cyber infrastructure is under attack.

And the damage goes far beyond money.

At stake are our identities, data, privacy and reputations - and the trust that holds our digital lives together.

Financial loss is only one line in the damage report.

🔎 Our investigations must go further:

What was taken?
Where has it spread?
Who can access it?
Who remains at risk?

📍 Blockchain infrastructures bring their own risks, threats and investigative challenges. Compromised private keys, smart-contract vulnerabilities and the distribution of stolen data across decentralised networks demand tailored strategies that connect on-chain analysis with off-chain evidence, digital forensics and coordinated incident response.

Every blockchain firm needs an investigative #toolbox that follows the money, traces the data, preserves the evidence and protects the people affected.

✍️🏽 JBBA Editor Simon Dyson explored this challenge in his 2019 research published “Blockchain Investigations—Beyond the ‘Money”.

Today’s threats make the case for that broader investigative approach increasingly urgent.
