Treasurey Cybersecurity Program for Crypto

The Treasury’s Office of Cybersecurity and Critical Infrastructure Protection is launching a strategy to safeguard U.S. crypto firms. Eligible companies will receive real‑time threat intelligence used by banks, after contacting the office to confirm eligibility. The program aims to curb the surge in crypto hacks and fraud.

Escalating Cyber Threats

Crypto thefts reached about $2.9 billion in 2025 across 150 incidents, increasingly targeting wallets and infrastructure. The 2026 Drift protocol breach showed the rising sophistication of attacks. Global cybercrime losses hit $17.6 billion last year, with crypto scams a large share.

Expected Impact and Cooperation

The initiative adds crypto firms to government intelligence‑sharing networks, giving them faster alerts comparable to banks. Officials say this will boost the resilience of both the digital‑asset sector and the wider financial system. A Treasury‑UAE cyber partnership also enables cross‑border data sharing and joint training.
