In this Fellow Perspective, Laura Whitt-Winyard discusses the Dark Nexus. The Dark Nexus is the intersection where the worlds of finance and technology meet. Criminals who engage in financial crimes, such as money laundering, often use technology to carry out their illegal activities. Fighting the Dark Nexus requires law enforcement and financial institutions to work together through stronger regulation, improved security measures, and international cooperation. By monitoring transactions, reporting suspicious activity, and sharing information, we can cut off the flow of funds that support criminal financial and cybersecurity activities.
