RANSOMWARE VIRUSES: SURVIVAL INSTRUCTIONS
Ransomware viruses are a serious problem for businesses and companies around the world. The best minds of mankind have been looking for ways to deal with them for several years.
In the field of cryptocurrency payments, such efforts are aimed at combating cashing out and suppressing the activities of exchangers working with contaminated cryptocurrency assets.
To date, cashing out of funds received from ransomware viruses through centralized exchanges is almost impossible for both the extortionists and for OTC exchangers who received such assets from the hands of extortionists.
The transparency of the blockchain and the high level of training of analytical specialists of cryptocurrency exchanges allow for in-depth analysis of transactions even in cases when the exchanger was not (and technically could not be) aware of the illegal nature of the formation of funds.
The result of such a combination of circumstances is often the blocking of the exchanger's funds on the exchange or the complete freezing of the entire account with any assets on it.
How to survive in such a situation?
There are two ways:
1) Implement preventive protection of the system by implementing proper verification of transactions and counterparties.
2) Assist in collecting evidence and justifications for unblocking previously frozen assets.
