“In the modern world, suffering from the pandemic, we can witness unprecedented global increase of malware cyberactivity, concealment and legalization of the proceeds from crime with the use of cryptocurrency, domestic violence. And all these lead to the new chain of criminal threats, which can be fought only together” – Igor Krasnov underlined.
