👮 The Metropolitan Police identified 17 wrench attacks — violent crimes where offenders coerce victims into transferring crypto assets — in London between March and December 2024. The average loss per offense was approximately GBP 660,000.

The frequency of wrench attacks — premeditated, targeted offenses using violence or the threat of violence to steal crypto assets — has been accelerating globally. Open-source research estimates roughly 70 wrench attacks worldwide in 2025, more than double the 2024 figure, with documented cases in the UK, France, the United States, and Canada.

These are physical crimes, but the proceeds move on-chain through cross-chain bridges, privacy coin conversion, and exchange deposits. That trail is traceable using TRM Forensics, and recovery is possible with rapid, coordinated response from law enforcement and exchanges.

TRM Labs and the Metropolitan Police Service's Central Specialist Crime unit co-authored a new white paper covering the proliferation of wrench attacks, how post-attack laundering unfolds, and what law enforcement and exchanges each need from one another to enable successful disruption.

A drone crashes near a restricted facility. No pilot in sight.

That aircraft knows where it took off, the route it flew, and what its camera saw. The question is whether you can get those answers out of it.

The challenge is that drone evidence never sits in one place. It is scattered across the aircraft, the flight controller, the remote controller, the cloud log archive, and the pilot's phone app. Most forensic tools were never built for that.

MD-DRONE is the answer to all of it, a dedicated solution that covers drone evidence from acquisition to analysis.

Drone-related cases are rising everywhere, from border incursions and prison contraband to critical infrastructure. When one lands on your desk, get the answers the aircraft is holding.

Today Siren and Ocient announced a strategic partnership that enables government agencies, law enforcement and intelligence organisations to investigate petabyte-scale datasets using trusted AI while maintaining complete sovereignty over their data

Rather than simply integrating two technologies, the partnership addresses one of the biggest challenges facing investigative organisations today, how to operationalise AI across massive datasets without compromising security, performance or control.

By combining Siren's AI investigations platform with the OcientAIQ™ Unified Data Platform, agencies can investigate full-fidelity data in sovereign, on-premises, hybrid or air-gapped environments, supporting mission-critical investigations at unprecedented scale.

"Delivering intelligence on full-fidelity datasets is core to modern mission operations. Our partnership with Ocient gives government and national security customers a proven path to query and investigate petabytes of data at speed and in the environments right for their operations." - John Randles, CEO, Siren

"The scale and complexity of modern mission data have outpaced what most architectures were built to support. We're thrilled to partner with Siren and, with OcientAIQ as the foundation, give more agencies the ability to get trusted, complete answers from petabyte-scale data at the speed investigations demand." - Andrew Borene, Vice President, Ocient

A suspect sends evidence iPhone-to-Galaxy, then fires off a self-destructing Private Share. Case closed?

The file is gone. The record of it isn't.

Quick Share logs which device connected, which files moved, and exactly when. Even Private Share, built to delete its files on a timer, leaves who sent what, to whom, and when in a separate database.

This month's Tech Letter shows how to recover that trail from an Android 16 device with MD-NEXT and MD-RED, down to the exact tables that expose a transfer the suspect thought was gone.

👉 See exactly where the traces are:
