KICKICO and Group-IB represent: analog wire blocking - a new way to withstand cyber threats.

Group-IB , an international company specializing in the prevention of cyber attacks, has recently been closely involved in the provision of computer security services for ICO projects. ICO projects are a very delicate branch, more than others, subject to hacker attacks and intrusions. According to a recent study conducted by Group-IB jointly by Ernst and Young, in 2017 almost $ 400 million of the 3.7 billion allocated to the ICO (approximately 10%) were stolen or lost.

Using the Group-IB threat intelligence system developed by Group-IB, we found that a group of hackers in DarkNet are actively recruiting experts for Big Data, trained in artificial intelligence, cryptography and blockbuster. After carefully analyzing this activity and studying the profiles of invited specialists, Group-IB analysts came to the conclusion that this hacking group is very likely preparing for the hacking of various crypto-currency projects, including KICKICO.
