The President of the United States expands crypto-analysis to find and get hands-on any criminal transaction. This initiative is taking place keeping in mind the rising issues related to ransomware which involves crypto. Even a spokesperson from the White House said, for now, the Government is giving priority to combat ransomware.
About expansion of crypto-analysis
The Biden Government shared the strategies for working against cryptocurrency ransomware this Tuesday in a White House press. White House Principal Deputy Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said that the President had launched a strategic review in a meeting. Additionally, the review will analyze the increase of threats regarding ransomware.

Since cryptocurrency has always created quite a buzz in the town, it is always a matter of discussion. Well, sometimes it is positive, and sometimes it is negative. And now, crypto-analysis or cryptocurrency analysis is taking place to keep an eye on what is happening in the country.
The Government has enforced four lines of efforts to look over the matter. One line has a target on the distribution of ransomware infrastructure and celebrities working closely with non-government sectors. In addition to this, the second line of efforts concentrates on building a coalition worldwide, on holding countries responsible for ransom actors. And again, there is another line looking over policies of the United States Government’s ransomware. The last and final line of effort was the expansion of crypto-analysis to track criminal transactions.
Ransomware with crypto creating havoc worldwide
Jean-Pierre also explains that due to an initiative taken by Biden’s administration, we can witness the four lines of efforts. These orders will be highly beneficial because it is a cyber-security initiative that will help decrease cyber-attacks in the country.

Unfortunately, among many crimes, ransomware is creating havoc in the crypto space globally. You will know you have become prey to ransomware when someone or some group asks you to pay in bitcoins. For example, JBS, a meat producing company is dealing with an “organized cybersecurity attack” since the end of the week of last month, May.
Colonial Pipeline is a company that serves the East Coast with half of its fuel needs. They were forced to shut down because they didn’t have any other option left. Systems were not working as they were locked up. Their pipeline was back online after few days, but they had to pay millions of dollars in bitcoins. The company did not have any funds to continue its business.
