INTERPOL and Crypto-Crime: Global Coordination Mechanisms and New Challenges for Digital Security
This report by Sergey Khrabrykh, President of Observatoire ARGA, examines the role of INTERPOL as a central hub in the international fight against cybercrime and the illicit turnover of crypto-assets. It analyzes the capabilities of the organization’s specialized units, such as I-CORE, in tracking transactions and coordinating interstate arrests. Special attention is given to the limitations of the international notice system (“Red Notices”) in the context of decentralized finance and the necessity for global data exchange reform.
