In this week's episode, Robby talks with his friend Keven Hendricks, a law enforcement veteran with extensive experience in dark web and cryptocurrency investigations. They explore topics like dark web forums, cryptocurrency's role in illegal activities, and the difficulties law enforcement encounters when monitoring these areas, especially with privacy coins like Monero.
Keven emphasizes the need for companies to take a ‘boots on the ground’ approach to monitoring dark web activities, rather than depending only on third-party tools. «Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer,» right? Keven also touches on the potential value of having a ‘Chief Intelligence Officer’ (CINO) to actively investigate emerging threats.
