By focusing on mitigating human mistakes and tightening access controls, CCSS aims to safeguard user assets more effectively. It also requires emergency protocols and reliable recovery systems.

WhiteBIT’s certification process was expertly handled by Hacken, a leading cybersecurity company accredited for CCSS audits.

WhiteBIT underwent a rigorous 2.5-month audit, which included a thorough inspection of its cold and hot wallets, extensive staff interviews, and the submission of over 100 artifacts detailing the exchange’s security protocols, policies, and operational procedures, as noted in the press release.
This milestone proves our steadfast commitment to protecting user assets,” remarked Volodymyr Nosov, WhiteBIT’s CEO. “In an industry where trust must be continuously reinforced, we uphold stringent security measures that set new standards. Our vision extends beyond innovation, ensuring it is firmly anchored in robust security.
