Crypto Incident response service
We work collaboratively with the organizations to investigate and respond to breaches that involve cryptocurrency
The Problem
The exponential growth of the internet of Money has created a board attack surface for threat actors. The same properties that make crypto a force for good permission less, programmable, and instantaneous value transfer – are being hijacked by ransomware groups, scammers, and hackers to attack at unprecedented speed and scale.
Today’s crypto threat landscape is more dynamic than ever before. In 2021 alone, we saw nation state hackers steal hundreds of millions of dollars in crypto, ransomware groups target hospitals and energy pipelines, and fraudsters steal more than a billion dollars from victims around the world.
Smart Contract Exploits
DeFi protocols, cross-chain bridges and other smart contract-based projects may be exploited and hacked.
Ransomware Attacks
Organizations can be targets of ransomware attacks that demand payment in cryptocurrency.
Wallet Hacks
Financial institutions and exchanges may be hacked, leading to loss of customer funds.

Navigating Crypto Crises: What Can Go Wrong and How CMG Steps In
In the fast-paced world of cryptocurrency, things can go wrong quickly, exposing users to a range of risks that threaten their assets and trust in the market. Hackers can exploit vulnerabilities in exchanges or wallets, as seen in the 2022 Bitmart hack where $196 million was stolen due to compromised private keys, while phishing scams trick users into revealing sensitive information, leading to drained accounts. Platform failures, like the collapse of FTX, can freeze user funds, leaving investors with little recourse, and ransomware attacks can lock access to critical systems, demanding hefty crypto payments for recovery. Even insider threats, such as rogue employees manipulating trades, pose significant dangers in an industry where transparency isn’t always guaranteed. These incidents not only result in financial loss but also erode confidence in the crypto ecosystem, making robust incident response a necessity for any serious platform.
That’s where we come in, leveraging our CMG assets and expert agents to provide swift, effective incident response tailored to the crypto world’s unique challenges. With our Computer and Mobile Forensics capabilities, we can quickly investigate breaches by analyzing compromised devices, tracing stolen funds through blockchain forensics, and identifying the culprits behind attacks—whether it’s a hacker, scammer, or insider threat. Our team of seasoned agents uses advanced tools like Cellebrite and Magnet AXIOM to recover critical data, while our proactive strategies, such as real-time threat monitoring and post-incident recovery plans, help restore security and user trust. From containing a hack to recovering assets and preventing future threats, we’re equipped to handle it all, ensuring your crypto journey stays safe and secure.
