Validin @ PivotCon 2025

May 7th - 9th, 2025 in Malaga, Spain

Our founder Kenneth Kinion and Tom Hegel, Distinguished Threat Researcher at SentinelLabs, will be presenting Unmasking the FreeDrain Network.

This talk unveils an enterprise-grade financial theft operation that weaponized search engines, free web services, and multi-layered redirection techniques to systematically drain cryptocurrency wallets at scale for years.

We will expose the network’s vast infrastructure, reveal how it evades traditional detections, walkthrough its operational workflow, and detail how we built an automated system to hunt for and monitor its operations at scale.

Most importantly, this research is an open call to action. We will share ways the attendees can collaborate with us to expand detection, impose further costs on the actors, and proactively defend against similar large-scale abuse networks.

This will be the first public unveiling of this investigation, delivering new intelligence, tooling, and seeking collaboration opportunities.
