Upgraded Infrastructure for Enhanced Asset Security

The CoinEx security team employs enhanced mechanisms holistically to strike a balance between convenience and security in crypto asset management within its hot wallets, including multi-signature protocols, trusted execution environments, independent infrastructure, physical separation, real-time monitoring of abnormal activities, multi-location backup of critical information, and automated alert system.

CoinEx’s security team also enhanced the underlying cold wallet architecture through multidimensional mechanisms such as proprietary cold storage system, offline private keys, multi-signature protocols, real-time monitoring of abnormal transactions, strict whitelisting and dedicated hardware authentication, providing users with the highest degree of asset protection.

Set up CoinEx Shield Fund to Protect User Assets

At CoinEx, upholding “Users First” is the guiding principle. CoinEx is fully committed to safeguarding user assets. The CoinEx Shield Fund preserves user assets against unforeseen risks, serving as an extra safeguard by allocating 10% of trading fees to insure against potential incidents. Users can trade with total peace of mind knowing their assets are insured.

Strategic Partnership with External Leading Security Institutions

CoinEx has forged a strategic alliance with one of the top cybersecurity leaders, SlowMist Technology. CoinEx and SlowMist will jointly build a threat information sharing network and focus on anti-money laundering (AML) traceability efforts to enhance CoinEx’s security capabilities. The collaboration spans from event tracing, asset tracking, and team knowledge sharing. Ongoing partnerships will continue strengthening their defenses.

Fortifying Defenses with Security Committee and Experts

CoinEx’s vigilance never wavers when it comes to security. CoinEx will continue to recruit seasoned experts to grow the security team and further strengthen measures to provide users with the robust protections and assurances needed to fully capitalize on the potential of crypto.
