What is blockchain forensics?

Blockchain forensics is the process of analyzing blockchain transactions to trace cryptocurrency movements, identify suspicious patterns, and gather evidence for legal proceedings. It combines data analysis, pattern recognition, and investigative techniques.

Is ForensicBlock evidence court-admissible?

ForensicBlock provides court-ready reports with cryptographic verification and chain-of-custody tracking designed for evidentiary workflows. Evidence quality and admissibility depend on proper handling, jurisdictional rules, case facts, and expert testimony in each proceeding.

Which blockchains does ForensicBlock support?

ForensicBlock supports 15+ live blockchain networks including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, TRON, XRP Ledger, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, BNB Smart Chain, Avalanche, Cardano, Polkadot, TON, Litecoin, and more. Coverage expansion toward 30+ networks is on our active roadmap.

How does ForensicBlock compare to Chainalysis?

ForensicBlock is an AI-first alternative to Chainalysis. While Chainalysis uses rule-based tools requiring trained analysts and costs $37,000+/year, ForensicBlock uses autonomous AI agents that conduct investigations independently — starting at just $19. Our AI analyzes behavioral patterns rather than relying solely on labeled address databases, enabling detection of novel threats.

Can ForensicBlock trace stolen cryptocurrency?

Yes. ForensicBlock's AI agents trace stolen cryptocurrency across supported networks, following funds through mixers, bridges, DeFi protocols, and cross-chain swaps. Our workflows generate defensible evidence packages with chain-of-custody documentation to support asset recovery and law enforcement investigations.

Does ForensicBlock support AML compliance and sanctions screening?

Yes. ForensicBlock provides comprehensive AML compliance tools including OFAC sanctions screening, Know Your Transaction (KYT) monitoring, Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) support, and continuous address monitoring. Our risk scoring engine combines 13 ML models for accurate threat detection across all supported blockchains.

Security FirstEvidence Integrity

Security & Trust

Your investigation data demands the highest level of protection.
We build ForensicBlock with security at every layer.

Data Protection

Encrypted at Every Layer

Investigation data is encrypted in transit and at rest, with strict isolation between accounts.

AES-256 Encryption at Rest

All investigation data stored in our Supabase PostgreSQL database is encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption.

TLS 1.3 in Transit

Every connection to ForensicBlock uses TLS 1.3 encryption, ensuring data is protected as it moves between your browser and our servers.

Row-Level Security

PostgreSQL row-level security policies enforce strict data isolation. Your investigation data is only accessible to your account.

Automatic Backups

Database backups run automatically with point-in-time recovery, ensuring your investigation data is never lost.

Evidence Integrity

Forensically Sound

Every report and evidence package is verifiable, tamper-evident, and documented for chain of custody.

SHA-256 Hash Verification

Every generated report includes a SHA-256 hash, allowing you to verify that report contents have not been altered after creation.

Immutable Audit Logging

All investigation actions are recorded in append-only audit logs, creating a verifiable trail of every step taken during analysis.

Chain-of-Custody Documentation

Reports include timestamped chain-of-custody records documenting how evidence was collected, processed, and analyzed.

Tamper-Evident Sealing

Exported evidence packages are cryptographically sealed so any modification after export is detectable.

Infrastructure

Built on Trusted Providers

ForensicBlock runs on infrastructure from providers with independently audited security certifications.

Vercel

SOC 2 Type II

Application hosting with automatic HTTPS, DDoS protection, and edge network distribution.

Supabase

SOC 2 Type II

PostgreSQL database hosting with encrypted storage, automated backups, and network isolation.

Stripe

PCI DSS Level 1

Payment processing. ForensicBlock never stores credit card numbers — all payment data is handled by Stripe.

Alchemy

SOC 2 Type II

Blockchain data API provider for on-chain transaction queries and analysis across multiple networks.

Note: The certifications listed above belong to our infrastructure providers, not to ForensicBlock itself. We select providers that meet rigorous, independently audited security standards.

Authentication & Access

Controlled Access

Multiple layers of protection ensure only you can access your investigation data.

Secure Session Management

Authentication powered by Supabase Auth with secure, httpOnly session cookies and automatic token refresh.

CSRF Protection

Cross-site request forgery protection on all state-changing endpoints prevents unauthorized actions.

Rate Limiting

All API endpoints are rate-limited to prevent abuse, with additional protection on authentication and credit-consuming routes.

Security Headers

Strict-Transport-Security (HSTS), Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options headers enforced on all responses.

AI Transparency

Transparent AI Practices

You deserve to know exactly how AI is used in your investigations, what models power it, and how your data is handled.

Models We Use

ForensicBlock uses Claude by Anthropic and GPT-4 by OpenAI for AI-powered analysis. We select models based on task suitability and accuracy.

AI Findings Clearly Labeled

All AI-generated findings in reports and analyses are explicitly labeled as AI-produced, so you always know what came from an AI model versus raw blockchain data.

No Training on Your Data

Your investigation data is never used to train AI models. We use API access to Anthropic and OpenAI, which do not use API inputs for model training.

Confidence Scoring

AI analysis results include confidence scores so you can assess the reliability of each finding and prioritize manual review where needed.

Data Handling

Your Data, Your Control

We believe investigation data belongs to the investigator. Full stop.

You Own Your Data

All investigation data you create belongs to you. We claim no ownership or rights over your analyses, reports, or findings.

Export Anytime

Export your investigation data, reports, and evidence packages at any time in standard formats. No lock-in.

Deletion on Request

Request deletion of your account and all associated investigation data at any time by contacting us. We will remove it from our systems.
