Guidehouse Becomes the First Global Chainalysis Certified Investigative Partner

New York, NY and Washington DC, June 22, 2022 - Guidehouse, a leading global provider of consulting services to commercial and public sector clients, has joined a strategic alliance with the blockchain data platform, Chainalysis, to strengthen the expansion of its blockchain compliance and investigative advisory offerings.

As a Chainalysis Certified Investigative Partner, Guidehouse has attained the highest level of training and competency in using Chainalysis’ Reactor, KYT and Kryptos tools, enabling it to provide best-in-class blockchain services to crypto-native businesses, traditional financial institutions, and government agencies around the world. While Chainalysis has several Certified Investigative Partners, Guidehouse is excellently positioned to select, implement, and optimize blockchain technology solutions to customers all over the world.

As the adoption of cryptocurrency continues to grow and expand into mainstream use cases, so has fraud, abuse, and the demand for regulatory oversight. Through this partnership, Guidehouse will leverage Chainalysis’ products and training to continue to help organizations more confidently monitor and investigate potentially illicit activities such as ransomware and scamming and build comprehensive capabilities in the digital assets ecosystem.

“We think this is a home run for both our digital asset and traditional banking clients. Not only will they have tools to help  establish a robust compliance program that can withstand regulatory scrutiny,” said Ellen Zimiles, Partner and Financial Services Segment Leader, “the combined expertise of Chainalysis and Guidehouse will help our clients become more effective and efficient in rooting out potentially fraudulent transactions and finding threat actors that are directly or indirectly engaging in illicit activities.”

“We are thrilled Guidehouse is our very first global certified investigative partner. At Chainalysis we are committed to enabling our trusted partners as they build centers of excellence for providing high quality professional services using Chainalysis products and data. Our partnership with Guidehouse supports our mission to build trust in blockchains by supporting companies and organizations to safely engage with cryptocurrencies,” said Thomas Stanley, President and Chief Revenue Officer at Chainalysis.
