The Cybercrime Atlas creates impact The Cybercrime Atlas has provided a real-world example of how a model of open-source intelligence gathering combined with operational collaboration can have a meaningful impact in tackling the global threat posed by cybercrime. By working together across sectors, we are showing what industry can do to help to make the internet a safer place. Jen Silk Senior Director, Office of the Chief Information Security Officer, PayPal Supporting disruption of cybercrime networks, operations Serengeti and Serengeti 2.0 The Cybercrime Atlas was named by the International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL) as an operational partner in the Serengeti and Serengeti 2.0 series of cybercrime disruptions that took place across 19 countries in Africa. The cumulative effect of these operations, coordinated by the African Union Mechanism for Police Cooperation (AFRIPOL) and INTERPOL, shows how industry collaborations, civil society experts, academia, and partnerships between the public sector and experts from the private sector can destabilize criminal networks. The Serengeti operations targeted criminal groups that had impacted more than 100,000 victims. The operations disrupted criminals’ technical and physical infrastructure, such as cryptocurrency mining equipment and electricity generators, seized $140 million in funds suspected to be from criminal activities and undermined the personal networks of trust that help cybercriminals collaborate. Hard drives, cryptocurrency mining equipment and illicit power stations were seized during the INTERPOL- and AFRIPOL-led Operation Serengeti 2.0 in August 2025. Cybercrime Atlas Impact Report 2025 6
