On February 6, 2025, the Bavarian State Ministry of Justice celebrated the 10th anniversary of the Central Office for Cybercrime Bavaria (ZCB) with a special ceremony in Bamberg. Over the past decade, the ZCB has played a pivotal role in combating cybercrime, continuously expanding its expertise and resources. Bavaria’s Minister of Justice, Georg Eisenreich, praised the unit’s success, stating, "The ZCB has written a success story in the fight against cybercrime."

Our CEO, Karl Zettl, participated in this significant event, reinforcing Iknaio’s commitment to supporting law enforcement in tackling financial crime in the digital space. Notably, GraphSense—the engine behind Iknaio—was recognized as a key investigative tool for cryptocurrency-related cases. Iknaio’s solutions like Pathfinder have helped ZCB trace illicit financial flows, providing crucial insights into cybercriminal activities.

The ZCB has been instrumental in investigating a wide range of cyber offenses, including online investment fraud, ransomware attacks, darknet crime, and emerging threats such as Crypto Romance Scams and Sextortion. One of its core capabilities lies in leveraging cutting-edge technologies, including Pathfinder, which enables investigators to follow digital money trails linked to criminal enterprises.

Minister Eisenreich acknowledged the importance of innovative tools and partnerships in law enforcement, highlighting the collaboration between the ZCB and experts from research institutions, INTERPOL, and industry leaders. This synergy exemplifies how advanced analytics and forensic capabilities, such as those provided by Iknaio, contribute to the fight against financial cybercrime.

As cyber threats continue to evolve, Iknaio remains committed to developing state-of-the-art investigative solutions and strengthening collaboration with law enforcement agencies worldwide.
