HashKey Group and SlowMist Join Forces in Strategic Partnership

HashKey Group and SlowMist Join Forces in Strategic Partnership

HashKey Group, the Asian crypto giant that offers a full range of financial services in the digital asset sector, and the leading blockchain security company SlowMist, are partners!

On this page

HashKey Group and SlowMist will focus on the following areas as part of their partnership:

  • Ensuring the security of the cryptocurrency ecosystem;
  • AML (Anti-Money Laundering) in the digital currency space;
  • Research of new security technologies;

 

As part of the partnership, SlowMist will provide HashKey Group with individual access to its services, including vulnerability monitoring and detection, cryptocurrency hacker archives, and a smart contract firewall. A detailed review of all blockchain products will be conducted to identify potential security weaknesses and avoid future risks. The financial company's business is now under the aegis of a well-known auditor. 

In addition, SlowMist will conduct a Red Teaming service audit of HashKey Group's staff, business systems, supply chains, and office programs. Based on the results obtained, the partners will develop an action plan for optimized protection.

To combat money laundering, SlowMist will provide solutions such as MistTrack and the Malicious Address Library. These tools are designed to detect all types of cybercrime and ensure the safety of user funds. With MistTrack, suspicious addresses and transactions can be tracked, and cryptocurrencies can be frozen for further analysis.

The Malicious Address Library is built using artificial intelligence and draws data from blockchain traps that allow for information gathering on various cybercriminals and scammers. In this way, it prevents the laundering of illegally obtained money. 

In exchange for comprehensive security services, HashKey Group will finance SlowMist's research into advanced cryptocurrency security technologies. The financial company will share its perspective on exploring new possibilities in the cybersecurity field and provide a professional investment team. 

As a reminder: HashKey Group is an Asian financial conglomerate that specializes in cryptocurrency-related services. The company offers trading platforms, crypto wallets, venture capital, and Web3 infrastructure. Its services operate in compliance with regulatory requirements. HashKey's offices are located in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Japan. The company collaborates with fintech providers and academic associations. 

SlowMist has been providing security solutions for cryptocurrencies and blockchains since 2018. The company conducts audits at various scales, identifying potential weaknesses in smart contracts and other software. They collaborate with hackers, incentivizing them to disclose vulnerabilities, and offer comprehensive protection and consulting services.

SlowMist experts have audited over 1500 smart contracts in Ethereum, EOS, Klaytn, Aptos, Solana, and other open-source blockchain ecosystems. During these audits, the company identified hundreds of high- and medium-risk vulnerabilities.
