Overview

CARA (Crypto Analysis Risk Assessment) is Uppsala Security's flagship machine-learning solution designed to classify the risk level of cryptocurrency addresses. The system operates as an on-demand subscription via Sentinel Portal and runs as a batch process that continuously analyses any crypto address Uppsala Security discovers.

Risk Assessment

Proactively identify malicious wallets and intermediate suspicious wallets used for multiple hops of relay by learning obfuscation patterns employed by malicious actors.

Risk Scoring

Classify each task as normal, suspicious, highly suspicious, or malicious based on specific criteria and associate weights that accurately reflect danger levels.

AML & CTF

Help businesses dealing with cryptocurrencies ensure they don't inadvertently transact with cybercriminals, money launderers, or terrorists.
