From ransomware to phishing, targeted hacks, malware, or IP theft, the cyber threats to every business continue to grow in number and complexity. Many breaches occur by exploiting vulnerabilities, through human error or the actions of an insider and that in some cases, can go undetected for months.

Why executive security should be top-of-mind for digital asset companies

On 6 November 2024, kidnappers in Toronto forced Dean Skurka into a vehicle during rush hour at a downtown intersection near the National Ballet of Canada. Kidnappers later released Skurka, the CEO of cryptocurrency firm WonderFi, after receiving a ransom of $720,660. Skurka emerged from the ordeal uninjured, but his plight illustrates the growing risk of harassment, extortion, and kidnapping that executives face, particularly for those who work in the digital asset sector.

Safety threats are not limited to executives in just one or a few industries. However, as digital assets have gained visibility in recent years, criminals increasingly view the sector as a ripe opportunity for ill-gotten financial gain. That means digital asset companies must reassess several protocols, ranging from their physical and digital security measures to when and how often executives surface in public settings, and even how often they use social media.On 6 November 2024, kidnappers in Toronto forced Dean Skurka into a vehicle during rush hour at a downtown intersection near the National Ballet of Canada.

Live music: building resilience against political violence risks

Event cancellation typically stems from adverse weather or the non-appearance of artists and key personnel.

However, stakeholders within the entertainment industry must also recognize the threat of political violence to live productions – particularly as the methods of threat actors evolve. 

Robust risk mitigation of violence at live events requires a holistic approach from all parties. Close collaboration and understanding of all contingencies and protections is critical to ensuring the safety of performers and spectators, alike.
