BIG Blockchain Intelligence Group Inc. announced the official launch of its Forensic Services Division. This division fills a significant gap in the efforts of law enforcement and the finance sector to investigate, track, and monitor illicit activity involving cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin, by bringing BIG's team of investigative experts into action. Certain investigations require in- depth expertise and experience, which the Forensic Services Division provides, either in conjunction with or supplemental to BIG's user-friendly search, risk-scoring and data analytics tools: BitRank VerifiedTM and QLUETM.

The Forensic Services Division is headed by BIG's Director of Forensics and Investigations, Robert Whitaker, a former Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) Supervisory Special Agent with over 23 years of experience in law enforcement, including serving as a Municipal Police Officer in El Paso, Texas for 8 years, and being assigned to Homeland Security Investigations Headquarters Illicit Finance and Proceeds of Crime Unit (IFPCU) and its Illicit Digital Economy Program (IDEP).
