"These new modules arm investigators, compliance teams and risk professionals with the latest intelligence and skills to identify emerging threats and protect against crippling hacks and exploits."
Module 9 provides an in-depth examination of major cryptocurrency hacks, exploits and exit scams that have occurred to date. Through detailed case studies, students will learn the tactics used by cybercriminals, how to detect early warning signs, and best practices for mitigating risks. The module also explores the dark web's role in facilitating these nefarious activities.
Module 10 focuses on cryptocurrency risk management frameworks and controls for financial institutions. Designed for compliance officers, risk managers and executives, the curriculum covers regulatory requirements, risk assessment methodologies, due diligence processes. Students will gain expertise in developing robust policies and procedures to safeguard their organizations. This module offers a standalone certification, Certified Cryptocurrency Investigator - Compliance (“CCI-C”).
These latest two modules complete the Certified Cryptocurrency Investigator - Advanced certification course, modules 6 - 10 (“CCI-A”). This certification will be valid for 1 year and a top up course will need to be completed and passed each year in order to retain a valid certificate.
Additionally, these new modules complement BIG's foundational CCI certification, which thousands of professionals worldwide from law enforcement agencies, regulatory bodies, financial institutions, crypto businesses, and more have completed. Over 2,500 professionals have completed the CCI courses, benefiting from the expertise of seasoned experts, including former federal agents and compliance officers.
"Blockchain Intelligence Group has been at the forefront of crypto training and investigations since our inception," said Robert Whitaker, Law Enforcement Affairs at BIG.
