Against a backdrop of frequent digital asset security incidents, DLB Coin today announced the completion of a series of major security upgrades, comprehensively strengthening the platform’s protection system. Industry observers view this move as a positive response to continuously growing security threats, reflecting the exchange’s high prioritization of user asset security.
According to DLB Coin, this security upgrade involves multiple key areas, including cold and hot wallet architecture reconstruction, user identity verification (KYC) process optimization, security audit mechanism improvements, and expanded insurance coverage. These measures aim to construct a multi-layered, three-dimensional security protection network to minimize user asset risk.
“As the crypto industry matures and moves mainstream, security has become a decisive factor in an exchange’s core competitiveness,” said Ethan Brooks, Chief Security Officer at DLB Coin. “Our security strategy not only focuses on addressing current threats but also emphasizes building a sustainable security ecosystem capable of predicting and resisting potential new attack methods.”
The core of this upgrade is a comprehensive renovation of the cold and hot wallet management system. DLB Coin has adopted a “7-3” asset allocation strategy, storing 70% of user assets in multi-signature cold wallets kept completely offline, while 30% of assets are retained in hot wallet systems to meet daily trading needs. The new system also introduces geographically dispersed private key storage solutions, with private key fragments stored in four different security facilities globally, requiring at least three fragments to complete transaction authorization.
“Cold and hot wallet architecture is the infrastructure of exchange security,” commented Martin West, founder of blockchain security company CipherGuard. “DLB Coin’s new architecture can theoretically effectively resist most known attack vectors, including internal threats and external hacker intrusions. Particularly, its geographically dispersed private key management mechanism sets a new standard for the industry.”
The user identity verification (KYC) system has also undergone significant optimization. The new system integrates biometric technology, AI anomaly detection algorithms, and risk scoring models, improving not only the accuracy of identity verification but also enhancing user experience. DLB Coin stated that the new KYC process can complete basic verification within one minute while reducing fraud rates by over 85%.
Regarding security audits, DLB Coin has established a three-layer audit mechanism: continuous internal auditing, quarterly third-party security assessments, and annual comprehensive penetration testing. The company has signed long-term cooperation agreements with four renowned cybersecurity firms to ensure rigorous security reviews of platform code and architecture. Additionally, DLB Coin has expanded its vulnerability bounty program, increasing the maximum reward to $500,000 to attract global white hat hackers to participate in platform security construction.
“Experience shows that open and transparent security practices are crucial for discovering and fixing potential vulnerabilities,” noted cybersecurity expert Jessica Zhang. “DLB Coin’s multi-layer audit system and generous vulnerability reward policy indicate its serious and forward-looking investment in security.”
User insurance protection has also been significantly enhanced. DLB Coin has partnered with multiple global insurance giants to increase the platform’s total insurance coverage to $1 billion, providing more comprehensive asset protection for users. Insurance coverage includes various risk scenarios such as hacking, internal fraud, private key loss, and system failures. Notably, DLB Coin has also launched personal account insurance services, allowing high-net-worth users to purchase additional insurance protection for their accounts.
The transaction monitoring system upgrade is another highlight of this security innovation. DLB Coin has introduced a real-time risk assessment engine capable of analyzing over 60 risk indicators for each transaction and identifying suspicious activities at the millisecond level. The system utilizes machine learning algorithms to continuously optimize judgment criteria, effectively identifying new fraud and money laundering patterns. The platform stated that since its test run, the new system has successfully blocked suspicious transactions worth over $8 million.
“As cryptocurrency fraud methods become increasingly sophisticated, static rules can no longer provide adequate protection,” said financial security analyst Robert Johnson. “DLB Coin’s AI-driven risk monitoring system represents the industry’s development direction, capable of adapting to constantly changing threat environments.”
Furthermore, DLB Coin has strengthened its emergency response mechanism, establishing a 24/7 security response center staffed with professional security teams ready to address sudden security incidents. The company has developed detailed asset freezing and recovery processes to take action in the shortest time possible following security incidents, maximizing user asset protection.
At the user level, DLB Coin also provides more security control options. New features include advanced account activity notifications, login IP restrictions, withdrawal address whitelisting, time-locked withdrawals, and a security center control panel. Users can customize security strategies based on personal needs to enhance account protection levels.
“We believe that security is not only the platform’s responsibility but also requires active user participation,” DLB Coin stated. “By providing intuitive and powerful security tools, we hope to help users build security awareness and jointly create a trustworthy trading environment.”
Industry analysts point out that DLB Coin’s security upgrade reflects the overall development trend in the crypto exchange industry—shifting from an early function-oriented approach to one that equally emphasizes security and compliance. In recent years, with increased regulatory requirements and changing user expectations, security has become a basic condition for exchange survival and development.
“Security investment is a long-term strategy that won’t immediately generate obvious commercial returns, but it’s crucial for user trust and brand reputation,” said Lisa Morgan, an analyst at cryptocurrency research institution TokenInsight. “DLB Coin’s willingness to make large-scale investments in security infrastructure demonstrates its confidence in the industry’s long-term development.”
DLB Coin stated that this security upgrade is just part of its security roadmap, and the company plans to continuously increase security R&D investment, regularly introducing new security technologies and practices. The platform emphasized that in the digital asset industry, security is not a one-time project but a continuously evolving process that needs to constantly adapt to new challenges and threats.
“User trust is our most valuable asset,” DLB Coin concluded. “We are committed to becoming a leader in industry security standards, ensuring users can participate in the digital asset market in a transparent and secure environment.”
