As the UAE cements its status as a global crypto hub, the risks have grown just as fast as the opportunities. With billions of dollars at stake, a single security breach can be catastrophic, a fact recently proven by a massive $1.5 billion hack elsewhere that shook the industry.
Addressing this threat head-on, Abu Dhabi-based security powerhouse CPX Holding today launched its Crypto Defense Solution. This new platform is designed to act as a digital guardian for the key players in the ecosystem, including crypto exchanges, custodians, and financial institutions. It moves beyond traditional cybersecurity, offering specialized protection for the unique challenges of the blockchain world.
“Digital asset transactions are accelerating not only in the UAE but across the globe, and security must keep pace,” said Hadi Anwar, CEO of CPX.
The platform protects digital assets from every angle. It starts by auditing the security of both online ‘hot’ wallets and offline ‘cold’ storage, and even reviews the underlying code of smart contracts. Behind it all, a specialized 24/7 security center monitors transactions, tracks blockchain-specific threats, and is ready to respond instantly if a breach occurs.
The platform offers a full suite of services, from auditing the code of smart contracts to providing an expert team for incident response and recovery. By combining deep blockchain intelligence with its proven expertise in securing critical infrastructure, CPX aims to provide the trust and resilience needed for the UAE’s digital asset economy to grow safely.
