Binance Launches Global Law Enforcement Training Program

• Binance has launched its Global Law Enforcement Training Program.
• This is the crypto industry’s first global coordinated effort to help law enforcement.
• The training program will cover topics on blockchain concepts, Binance’s AML, and investigation methods.

Today, Binance announced that they have formally unveiled Binance’s Global Law Enforcement Training Program. This is the crypto industry’s first global coordinated effort to help law enforcement detect financial and cyber crimes and assist in the prosecution of bad actors who exploit digital assets.

Over the past year, the Binance Investigations team has conducted and participated in more than 30 workshops on countering cyber and financial crime.

The largest crypto exchange platform has engaged with law enforcement officers in Argentina, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, Israel, Netherlands, Philippines, Sweden, South Korea, and the UK, among others.

According to the Global Head of Intelligence and Investigations of Binance, Tigran Gambaryan:

As more regulators, public law enforcement agencies, and private sector stakeholders look closely at crypto, we are seeing an increased demand for training to help educate on and combat crypto crimes.

World-class practitioners will lead the training program from the Binance Investigations team. The trainers from the Binance Investigations team have experience as analysts and operatives who have helped take down some of the world’s largest criminal platforms, such as Silkroad and Hydra.

The standard one-day training program will include workshops on the fundamental concepts of blockchain and crypto assets, as well as insights into the evolving legal and regulatory environment.

Binance’s anti-money laundering (AML) policies and the investigative methods developed by the company to detect and prevent criminal behavior will also be discussed in detail.

Since last year, the Binance Investigations team has responded to more than 27,000 law enforcement requests with an average of three days’ response time, making it faster than any traditional financial institution.
