In quantitative terms, the illegal market for "breaking through" the data of Russians is falling, but in monetary terms it is growing, Ashot Oganesyan, founder of the DLBI data leak intelligence and darknet monitoring service, said in an interview.

“Punching is in demand among crime and gray detectives, therefore, despite all efforts, it does not disappear, but only grows in value. Last year, the median cost of a “breakthrough” has grown 2.25 times since 2020 and almost 7 times since 2017, when we conducted the first study, ”Oganesyan said in an interview with the publication.

Since 2020, information on accounts and transactions of citizens has risen as much as possible - 4.3 times - since 2020 (the so-called "bank breakdown").
