Recoveris has joined IVAN (Illicit Virtual Asset Notification), a formal information-sharing platform established by the FBI, Secret Service, DEA, IRS Criminal Investigation, Army Criminal Investigation Division, U.S. Postal Inspection Service, U.S. Postal Service Office of Inspector General, Defense Criminal Investigative Service, UK National Crime Agency, and administered by MITRE as trusted third party.
What makes IVAN critical
Real-time intelligence sharing
The platform enables coordinated detection and disruption of ransomware payments and illicit virtual asset flows across both public and private sector partners.
Accelerated response capabilities
IVAN functions as a virtual asset BOLO (Be On The Lookout) system. When illicit identifiers are shared, all partners can query their holdings for potential responsive action under time-critical conditions.
Growing network effect
Since its May 2024 formation, IVAN has welcomed 35 partners and facilitated sharing of over 5,000 unique illicit identifiers, demonstrating the scale of coordination now possible between law enforcement and specialized forensic intelligence providers.
What this partnership means
This partnership directly enhances our ability to support investigations requiring multi-jurisdictional coordination and rapid asset freezing actions. As ransomware operators and other threat actors increasingly exploit cross-border payment rails, platforms like IVAN become essential infrastructure for effective enforcement.
This expanded intelligence network means faster detection, broader coordination capabilities, and improved recovery outcomes.
