STEEMEXCHANGER BLOCKED 76 THREATS IN THE LAST 1 MONTH
We can all agree that the cryptocurrency arena is a very security sensitive arena, with the recent growing of attacks on exchanges all around the world, only few exchanges like steemexchanger, binance, poloniex, bittrex and a few other big exchanges have been able to weather the storm and retain integrity and secure it's user base from malicious individuals.
THOUGH STEEMEXCHANGER IS NEW, WE ARE STRONG AND UP TO THE TASK
Though steemexchanger has only recently been in the exchange scene, steemexchanger has had it's fair share of attacks in recent times, but due to our development strength and choice of infrastructure, steemexchanger has been able to wade off all the attacks targeted at stealing sensitive information or disrupting the service.
With a total of 238,302 requests in the last month, it will be impossible not to have malicious requests that.
