2021 Internet Crime Report
The FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) produces a yearly report highlighting their work to combat internet crime. This report covers internet crime discovered in 2021. From the Introduction: "In 2021, America experienced an unprecedented increase in cyber attacks and malicious cyber activity. These cyber attacks compromised businesses in an extensive array of business sectors as well as the American public. As the cyber threat evolves and becomes increasingly intertwined with traditional foreign intelligence threats and emerging technologies, the FBI continues to leverage our unique authorities and partnerships to impose risks and consequences on our nation's cyber adversaries. The FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) provides the American public with a direct outlet to report cyber crimes to the FBI. We analyze and investigate the reporting to track the trends and threats from cyber criminals and then share this data with our intelligence and law enforcement partners. [...] In 2021, IC3 continued to receive a record number of complaints from the American public: 847,376 reported complaints, which was a 7% increase from 2020, with potential losses exceeding $6.9 billion. Among the 2021 complaints received, ransomware, business e-mail compromise (BEC) schemes, and the criminal use of cryptocurrency are among the top incidents reported. In 2021, BEC schemes resulted in 19,954 complaints with an adjusted loss of nearly $2.4 billion." This document includes charts, tables, and graphs to illustrate the text.

2020 Internet Crime Report
The FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) produces a yearly report highlighting their work to combat internet crime. This report covers internet crime discovered in 2020. From the Introduction: "In 2020, while the American public was focused on protecting our families from a global pandemic and helping others in need, cyber criminals took advantage of an opportunity to profit from our dependence on technology to go on an Internet crime spree. These criminals used phishing, spoofing, extortion, and various types of Internet-enabled fraud to target the most vulnerable in our society - medical workers searching for personal protective equipment, families looking for information about stimulus checks to help pay bills, and many others. Crimes of this type are just a small part of what the FBI combats through our criminal and cyber investigative work. Key to our cyber mission is the Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3), which provides the public with a trustworthy source for information on cyber criminal activity, and a way for the public to report directly to us when they suspect they are a victim of cyber crime. IC3 received a record number of complaints from the American public in 2020: 791,790, with reported losses exceeding $4.1 billion. This represents a 69% increase in total complaints from 2019." This document includes charts, tables, and graphs to illustrate the text.

Atrocities in Xinjiang: Where Do We Go from Here? Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Western Hemisphere, Transnational Crime, Civilian Security, Democracy, Human Rights, and Global Women's Issues; and Subcommittee on East Asia, the Pacific and International Cybersecurity Policy of the Committee on Foreign Relations, United States Senate, One Hundred Seventeenth Congress, First Session, June 10, 2021
This is the June 10, 2021 hearing on "Atrocities in Xinjiang: Where Do We Go from Here?," held before the U.S. Senate Subcommittee on Western Hemisphere, Transnational Crime, Civilian Security, Democracy, Human Rights, and Global Women's Issues; and Subcommittee on East Asia, the Pacific and International Cybersecurity Policy of the Committee on Foreign Relations. From the opening statement of Tim Kaine: "This matter of the treatment of Uyghurs in China has to be highlighted and exclamation-pointed into the world. China's human rights abuses are well known and widespread, not just in Xinjiang with the Uyghurs, but in particular, across the country, China limits the political expression, religious freedom, reproductive choice, and citizen's ability to choose where they live and work. China has repressed Tibet for decades, and has launched a despicable and comprehensive crack down on political dissent in Hong Kong. All of these issues deserve our condemnation and urgent action by the United States and by the world. Nowhere is the assault on individual freedom and basic human rights more comprehensive and more atrocious than against the Uyghur Muslims in Xinjiang Province."

Schemes and Subversion: How Bad Actors and Foreign Governments Undermine and Evade Sanctions Regimes, Virtual Hearing Before the Subcommittee on National Security, International Development and Monetary Policy of the Committee on Financial Services, U.S. House of Representatives, One Hundred Seventeenth Congress, First Session, June 16, 2021
This is the June 16, 2021 hearing on "Schemes and Subversion: How Bad Actors and Foreign Governments Undermine and Evade Sanctions Regimes," held before the U.S. House Subcommittee on National Security, International Development and Monetary Policy of the Committee on Financial Services. From the Opening Statement of Jim A. Himes: "Our sanctions programs can only be as impactful as they are effective. When designated entities evade our sanctions, we lose an important tool from our diplomatic toolbox increasing the likelihood that military action would be necessary to maintain international order. Our hearing today will focus on those methods of sanctions evasion ranging from physically changing the name painted on the back of a ship, the stern of a ship, to the use of shell companies to cyber-enable crime like the ransomware attacks that have been so prevalent in the news recently." Statements, letters, and materials submitted for the record include those of the following: Ivan A. Garces, Lakshmi Kumar, Eric B. Lorber, Jesse Spiro, and Jeffrey W. Taliaferro.

Going Viral: Heightened Cyber and Corporate Crime Risks in the COVID-19 Pandemic
From the Document: "The COVID-19 [coronavirus disease 2019] outbreak has posed an unprecedented challenge - not just for individuals and governments, but also corporates seeking to navigate unchartered waters in the widespread disruption caused by the global pandemic. Operational challenges aside, the unique circumstances of the pandemic have also presented opportunities for cyber and corporate criminal activity. In this article, we explain how the ongoing pandemic presents corporates with further risks from four key corporate crime threats, namely, (1) cyber scams, (2) cyber attacks, (3) corrupt activity and (4) fraudulent conduct. As corporates grapple with economic survival in this pandemic they should also actively inoculate themselves against these risks by continuing to educate their employees about fraudulent schemes and corruption risks, ensuring 'compliance as usual' and undertaking fact-finding enquiries promptly."

Impact of COVID-19 on Cyber Crime and State-Sponsored Cyber Activities
From the Background: "In March 2020, governments worldwide imposed curfews and rules on reducing physical social contact in order to stem the spread of the corona virus. Wherever possible, employers allowed their employees to work from home, where, more and more, private IT [information technology] devices are being used for official business. This larger IT surface is often less well protected than IT devices used at work. New programs, e.g. for conference calls and video conferences, are being introduced under time pressure, in most cases without adequate security checks. Also, there are more and more reports about cyber attacks on health-care organizations on whose proper functioning governments and societies are more dependent now than ever. What is the impact of the COVID-19 [coronavirus disease 2019] pandemic on cyber security, cyber crime and state-sponsored cyber activities? How can governments reduce cyber threats and address them?"

Financial Crime in Times of Covid-19 - AML and Cyber Resilience Measures
From the Highlights: "'[1] Criminals are exploiting vulnerabilities opened up by the Covid-19 [coronavirus disease 2019] lockdown, increasing the risks of cyber attacks, money laundering (ML) and terrorist financing (TF). [2] Authorities worldwide have responded by drawing financial institutions' attention to these threats and by providing guidance on ways to improve cyber security and mitigate ML and TF risks. [3] Financial authorities are warning financial institutions to be particularly watchful in relation to their IT [information technology] networks and non-public data; third-party risk; and cyber security incident response plans; and to focus additional effort on staff training and awareness. [4] Financial authorities also emphasise the need for financial institutions to be vigilant of new ML and TF risks and to continue meeting anti-money laundering (AML) and combating the financing of terrorism (CFT) requirements, while using the flexibility built into the AML/CFT risk-based framework, digital customer on-boarding and simplified due diligence processes. [5] In both areas, the official guidance underscores the trade-offs between expecting financial institutions to enhance or adjust their cyber resilience and AML frameworks and, on the other hand, avoiding imposing an excessive burden that could hinder financial institutions in delivering key financial services.'"

Keep an Eye on North Korean Cyber-Crime as the COVID-19 Spreads
From the Document: "The Covid-19 [coronavirus disease 2019] outbreak continues to cause tumult in the global economy, with countries like South Korea and Italy reporting a rapid increase in diagnoses and many companies requesting that employees work from home to keep the virus from spreading. In North Korea's case, it has had its Chinese borders closed for over a month, long before the rest of the world began to react to the virus. Even if it were, as its state media claims, coronavirus-free, how long could their economy sustain total global isolation? By sealing their border with their largest economic partner, North Korea has effectively placed itself at the mercy of UN sanctions. [...] To ensure that their country can continue to function while they weather the global crisis, North Korea may very likely double down on cybercrime. While smuggling and other forms of illicit trading require the physical moving of goods and/or services, cybercrime can be committed from anywhere, even a sealed North Korea."

Private Sector and Government Challenges and Opportunities to Promote the Cybersecurity and Resiliency of Our Nation's Critical Energy Infrastructure, Hearing Before the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources, United States Senate, One Hundred Fifteenth Congress, Second Session, March 1, 2018
This is the March 1, 2018 hearing on "Private Sector and Government Challenges and Opportunities to Promote the Cybersecurity and Resiliency of Our Nation's Critical Energy Infrastructure" held before the U.S. Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources. From the opening statement of Lisa Murkowski:"Cyberattacks are a well-documented and continuing threat. Every day we seem to hear of yet another incident. Increasingly, it appears that the bad actors are nation-states and sophisticated entities, such as organized crime or terror groups. These attacks are across-the-board and not limited, of course, to energy infrastructure. [...] What should the Federal Government do, or refrain from doing, to meet this dynamic and evolving threat? And how can the government help improve the cyber resiliency of critical energy infrastructure if a threat becomes a reality? [...] Protecting our nation's energy infrastructure, we all agree, is critical to maintaining so much of the American way of life. We must determine what the next appropriate steps will be to further identify and prevent cyber intrusions and increase resiliency in the event of an attack. Those solutions may not require more regulation, but rather more common sense and cooperation." Statements, letters, and materials submitted for the record include those of the following: Bruce J. Walker, Jim Matheson, Barbara Endicott-Popovsky, William H. Sanders, and Robert M. Lee.

This is the March 13, 2019 hearing on "Cyber Crime: An Existential Threat to Small Business" held before the U.S. Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship. From the opening statement of Marco Rubio: "This hearing will discuss one of the most challenging issues facing small businesses: cybersecurity. It's hard enough for small businesses to get up and running with changing markets, regulatory hurdles, and the cost of starting a business, but cyberattacks can bring a quick end to all of one's hard work. Foreign hackers and other cyber criminals are increasingly targeting small businesses to steal their intellectual property, trade secrets, and valuable information, and an equally nefarious practice is to hold hostage small businesses' operational and customer data in order to get a ransom payment. [...]The risk of cybercrime is greater to small businesses, which lack, many cases, the dedicated IT [Information Technology] staff, the sophisticated equipment that larger companies have in order to try and stay safe. [...] Consequences of cybercrime are also greater for small businesses, which operate on a smaller profit margin and are not always able to bounce back after a costly attack." Statements, letters, and materials submitted for the record include those of the following: Maria Roat, Charles Romine, Stacey Smith, Elizabeth Hyman, and Karen A. Harper.

DOD Cyber Crime Center (DC3) Vulnerability Disclosure Program (VDP) Annual Report 2019, Volume 1
From the Document: "While 2019 has arguably been our most successful year to date it is equally important to highlight several of our future goals that we hope will bring great value to the program and the defense of our nation's digital assets. The DoD VDP [Vulnerability Disclosure Program] has developed three distinct lines of effort (LOEs) to strategically drive towards. This allows us to narrow our focus and better align our resources while continuing to provide the same world-class service to the Warfighter."
