Funds Exfiltration describes the unauthorized transfer of assets out of a system or account. In the context of digital assets, this typically involves cybercriminals illicitly moving cryptocurrency from compromised exchanges, wallets, or smart contracts. Such actions often follow security breaches, exploiting vulnerabilities like private key compromises or protocol weaknesses. The objective is to convert stolen assets into untraceable forms or traditional currency.
