THE LION’S SHARE OF THOSE CAUGHT ARE
EMPLOYEES OF THE MINISTRY OF INTERNAL AFFAIRS, MOBILE OPERATORS AND MOBILE COMMUNICATION SALONS, AS WELL AS REPRESENTATIVES OF BANKS
There are very few real sellers and a lot of intermediaries on the black market of bank “penetration”, while their prices can be four times higher. Demand leads to a significant annual increase in the cost of services.
Until 2020, the attention of law enforcement officers was focused on government agencies, but a sharp increase in offers on the darknet forced the security forces and “security officers” of companies to actively look for scammers in business.
So, by the end of 2019, the share of caught “drainers” from the banking sector and from telecom operators increased.
HOW TO CATCH “DRAINERS” OF DATABASES
The only effective method is control purchases, in which you can catch the seller on the hot with irrefutable evidence.
Alexey Parfentiev, Serchinform:
– Usually it happens like this: the company records the appearance of data from its database in the darknet. The Information Security Service (IS) or representatives of law enforcement agencies anonymously contact the seller with an order for a specific set of data guaranteed to belong to the company. An insider is calculated when he merges an order from the workplace and receives a reward for it. In this scenario, the investigation has a proven corpus delicti, plus the identity of the attacker is immediately revealed – this is a guarantee that he will be punished.
