Anti Money Laundering on Blockchain (CLUSIL & ISACA joint event)
Alberto Ornaghi, Neutrino's Chief Technology Officer (http://www.neutrino.nu/), and Giancarlo Russo, Neutrino's Chief Executive Officer, will present How-To perform Anti Money Laundering checks and detect suspicious transactions on the bitcoin network, extending the traditional “follow the money” approach also to the dark web. In particular, they will present how, based on advanced machine learning engines and “clustering” techniques, it is possible to monitor, analyze and track the blockchain and all bitcoin activities providing actionable compliance insight, including setting-up customized “red flag” alerts based on location (“blacklist” approach), detection of money obfuscation schemes (“mixer” and “tumbler”), and bitcoins with suspicious origin/destinations linked to darknet activities. The techniques and tools presented are used by Law Enforcement, Compliance and Regulatory Organizations and by simple bitcoins network participants. The presentation is addressed to both technical and non-technical audience (including Compliance, Risk and Audit professionals).

Blockchain series - Installment #5
The CLUSIL series of conferences on Blockchain security aims at surveying current status of Blockchain security, focusing on sector-specific and national initiatives. When speaking about Blockchain security, one mainly thinks of integrity and privacy issues. However, in practise, Blockchain-based solutions also face legal and operational risks. The fifth session of the conference series will cover several of these secondary risks, including legal implications for smart contracts, and security considerations for scalability solutions.

Blockchain series - Installment #1
Blockchain is nowadays considered as a key technology, particularly in Luxembourg, where many initiatives around this new paradigm are launched. Since the FinTech ecosystem and the Blockchain are based on similar concepts, it is primarily the financial sector that is concerned. However, there exist many more applications in other domains, including the medical sector, e-voting and smart contracts. Security of Blockchain technology is an ambivalent concept: while security constitutes its main strength, it is also the primary source of mistrust that one may have of Blockchain-based applications. The CLUSIL series of conferences on Blockchain security aims at surveying current status of Blockchain security, focusing on sector-specific and national initiatives.
Speakers
Steve MULLER (Security Researcher at itrust consulting): "Fundamentals of Blockchain security"
Laurent KRATZ (Co-Founder at Scorechain): "Cryptocurrencies de-anonymisation, the hunt for ransomware"
