OFAC Update: Russia-related Designations and Cyber-related Addition
The U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) has issued a recent update, adding two new individuals and entities to its Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) List and Consolidated Sanctions List.
One individual, Sergey Sergeevich Ivanov, also known as Omelnytskii, has been added to the SDN List. He is a Russian national, born on June 2, 1980, and is associated with the Taleon and UAPS entities.
A second entity, Cryptex (also known as International Payment Service Provider LLC), has also been added to the SDN List. This entity is based in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and operates a digital currency business.
Both the individual and entity have been designated due to their alleged involvement in Russia-related activities and cyber-related activities, respectively.
