Encryption, Cryptocurrencies & the Darknet.

What is encryption, how does cryptocurrency work and what makes the darknet “dark”? In this presentation we explore these core pillars of technology enabled crime in an easy to understand and practical way. We focus on the history of cryptocurrency, its uses and users and include some interesting case studies. We explore the disruption effect that encryption has had on traditional evidence gathering methodology and the emergence of new types of offending by a new type of offender.
