论文摘要
金融犯罪格局正在随着金融服务数字化的发展而发展。在这种情况下,法律和法规无法有效地应对诸如财务的快速发展行业,该行业转化为采用措施和法律空白,为恶意演员提供富有成果的景观。同时,区块链技术及其有前途的功能,例如不变性,可验证性和身份验证,可以增强金融取证的机会。在本文中,我们着重于挪用公款计划,并为其研究提供了法医设计方法。此外,我们的方法的可行性和适应性可以扩展并包含对其他类型方案的数字调查。我们提供基于智能合约的功能实施,并整合了标准化的法医流和保管机制链。最后,我们讨论了区块链与金融调查之间共生关系的好处和挑战,以及未来的研究方向。
The financial crime landscape is evolving along with the digitization in financial services. In this context, laws and regulations cannot efficiently cope with a fast-moving industry such as finance, which translates in late adoption of measures and legal voids, providing a fruitful landscape for malicious actors. In parallel, blockchain technology and its promising features such as immutability, verifiability, and authentication, enhance the opportunities of financial forensics. In this paper, we focus on an embezzlement scheme and we provide a forensic-by-design methodology for its investigation. In addition, the feasibility and adaptability of our approach can be extended and embrace digital investigations on other types of schemes. We provide a functional implementation based on smart contracts and we integrate standardised forensic flows and chain of custody preservation mechanisms. Finally, we discuss the benefits and challenges of the symbiotic relationship between blockchain and financial investigations, along with future research directions.
