Group-IBis a Russian cybersecurity company.

History

Group-IB was founded in 2003 by Ilya Sachkov and Dmitry Volkov in Moscow, Russia. The company moved to Singapore in 2019. In July 2020, it received funding from the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore through venture capital firm TNB Ventures.

It cooperated with Guardia di Finanza (GdF) as part of the operation No-vax free in 2021 to identify criminals trading in fake COVID-19 green passes.

In September 2021, Ilya Sachkoy, its co-founder and CEO, was detained by Russian authorities for treason. He was sentenced to 14 years in prison. The Russian and international business were later split with the business sold in April 2023 to Russian management.

In 2022, the firm worked with the Dutch police in an operation to apprehend alleged members of a phishing group.

Group-IB signed a MoU with AFRIPOL to strengthen cybersecurity capabilities in 2024 and extended their strategic partnership with Interpol at INTERPOL Global Complex for Innovation in Singapore.
