Cryptocurrency & Payments Security Summit
Virtual Summit November 1 - 2, 2022
Over the last year, we have witnessed an unprecedented change in how the world interacts with money and how commerce occurs. This change has been led by the ability to take and make payments at an unprecedented speed and scale.

Payments today can move in a permissionless, decentralized world, across borders, peer-to-peer and can be innovated upon at the speed of the internet and software to suit a specific need. The explosion of digital assets moved from a bitcoin-only world to a multiverse of alt-coins, stablecoins, central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and decentralized finance (DeFi). Rapid expansion of the cryptoverse and its mainstream adoption by traditional financial institutions, investors, and payments companies is causing a material shift in how we think about the future.

We now not only have the ability to build to meet the needs of our customers at a rapid pace, but also the need to work along with regulators and policy makers who are working to understand and find the balance to implement a clear framework that protects individuals in this new, decentralized world. We look forward to hearing from payments and crypto experts who are facing some of these questions as they help to build the future of payments and crypto.
ISMG's agendas provide actionable education and exclusive networking opportunities with your peers and our subject matter expert speakers.

OFAC on Crypto Sanctions Compliance
Lawrence Scheinert, Associate Director, Compliance and Enforcement, Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), U.S. Department of the Treasury

Virtual currencies are beginning to play an increasingly prominent role in the global economy. The growing prevalence of virtual currency as a payment method, likewise brings greater exposure to sanctions risks—like the risk that a sanctioned person or a person in a jurisdiction subject to sanctions might be involved in a virtual currency transaction. Accordingly, the virtual currency industry, including technology companies, exchangers, administrators, miners, wallet providers, and users, plays an increasingly critical role in preventing sanctioned persons from exploiting virtual currencies to evade sanctions and undermine U.S. foreign policy and national security interests.

In this Exclusive Session with Lawrence Scheinert, Associate Director, Compliance and Enforcement, Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) at U.S. Department of the Treasury he will:

  • Identify who must comply with OFAC sanctions and why
  • Discuss the consequences of noncompliance and the implications of this on cybersecurity practitioners 
  • Analyze how to “block” virtual currency

  • Analyze the emerging fraud trends, and take a deep dive into the reasons why they are so challenging to detect
  • Discuss strategies that inhibit fraudsters and make it harder for them to succeed

The Challenge of Zelle Fraud
Karen Boyer, SVP Financial Crimes, Fraud Intelligence, M&T Bank
James Hitchcock, Vice President, Fraud Mitigation, American Bankers Association

Fast, convenient … free! It's not surprising that Zelle is America's most popular payment app. The peer-to-peer (P2P) payment service, created by a consortium of major US banks, lets users transfer funds directly between bank accounts at no charge. Unfortunately it's also proven popular with the fraudsters. Through well-crafted social engineering techniques, criminals are successfully duping consumers to make fraudulent transactions. How can we tackle the new challenge of P2P payment fraud?

This expert panel will share insights and strategies, where they will:

  • Analyze the Zelle scams and other social engineering trends, and their impact on the overall payment fraud landscape
  • Discuss the challenges for banks, consumers and regulators
  • Evaluate best practices to prevent and reduce the impact of impersonation fraud

The same qualities that make crypto a force for good- decentralized cross border value transfer at the speed of the internet - also make it susceptible to illicit actors who want to move large amounts of funds quickly.

Our panel of expert crypto investigators will:

  • Discuss the latest in investigating crypto- specialized units, tools, training and the most notable types of cases 
  • Evaluate the trends and major typologies that are most prominent today 
  • Assess what are the biggest challenges today in crypto investigations, as well what is on the horizon in the future investigative space
