Operation Silent Vector I
The first operation under the global CyberCrime Bounty Program, launched with Fortinet to unmask the people behind global cyber threats.
Where most cybersecurity work targets vulnerabilities, malware and infrastructure, Silent Vector targets the human element: the actors, the aliases and the criminal networks driving the attacks.
Through secure anonymous reporting, the program seeks actionable intelligence on named cybercriminal targets. Information that helps law enforcement identify offenders, disrupt activity and support investigations may be eligible for a financial reward.

Statement: Crime Stoppers International not impacted by P3 Global Intel data breach
“Crime Stoppers International is aware of recent reporting by CBC News regarding a data breach at P3 Global Intel, a third-party tip management platform owned by US company Navigate360. The breach occurred in P3’s systems. It was not a breach of Crime Stoppers International.
Crime Stoppers International does not use the P3 platform. We operate our own separate, secured systems, and our platform has not been impacted. CSI does not keep a historical database of tips.
Canadian Crime Stoppers programs are not members of Crime Stoppers International, and enquiries relating to the Canadian records should be directed to the Canadian Crime Stoppers Association.
The guarantee of anonymity is the foundation of Crime Stoppers, and we take any report of exposed tipster information extremely seriously. We urge the public to be alert to scams: if anyone contacts you about a tip you have previously given, do not share any information.”
