Project description
New tools to map criminal money trails
Today’s transnational criminal networks are adaptable and increasingly using the latest technologies. In this context, the EU-funded TRACE project will explore the rise and spread of ICT-enabled crimes and illicit financial flows (IFFs). Considering that innovative policing tools are required to patrol the virtual routes, the project will focus on new ways to identify, track and document IFFs. In consultation with law enforcement agencies, the project will apply its solutions in use cases on terrorist financing, web forensics, cyber extortion and use of cryptocurrencies in money laundering in arts and antiquities, and online gambling. It will also set up a working group of law enforcement agencies and other stakeholders to discuss good practices in information sharing.
