Notă biografică
Although Prakash Prasad avoids the limelight, his name is very significant in the fields of digital forensics and cryptocurrency crime. Having worked in the industry for over 20 years, he has established a reputation for knowing how to respond when things go wrong in addition to having a thorough understanding of the intricate technical aspects of cyberthreats.
He has authored over a dozen publications over the years, all of which are straightforward manuals that simplify difficult subjects like fintech fraud, cyber law, and the rapidly evolving realm of virtual currencies. But his work goes way beyond writing.
Prakash has helped shape how law enforcement agencies, regulators, and corporate security teams approach digital investigations. He’s trained thousands of professionals, sharing what he's learned from real-world cases so they can better handle today’s cyber threats.
He’s also a regular presence at global cybersecurity conferences, where he dives into how fraud works—from traditional bank scams to dark web marketplaces—and how new tools like blockchain, OSINT, AI, and even quantum computing are changing the game. His work in social media intelligence (SOCMINT) and transaction tracing has helped uncover fraud patterns that might otherwise go unnoticed.
What makes Prakash’s approach different is how he blends fields—criminology, forensic science, psychology, finance—and uses that mix to see digital crime from all angles. He’s earned over 220 professional credentials (yes, really), including certifications in crypto crime investigation, cyber forensics, data science, and financial crime analysis. But talk to him, and it’s clear: it’s not about collecting titles—it’s about staying sharp in a space that never stops evolving.
His latest book, Crypto Investigations and Forensics, pulls together everything he’s learned into a hands-on guide. Whether you’re in law enforcement, compliance, or just trying to keep your systems safe, this book lays out what works—and what doesn’t—when it comes to navigating the wild world of crypto crime.
