WhiteBIT has achieved a groundbreaking security milestone, becoming the world's first cryptocurrency exchange to attain Level 3 certification under the Cryptocurrency Security Standard (CCSS), developed by the CryptoCurrency Certification Consortium (C4).

What is CCSS and Its Significance

The CCSS is an industry security standard designed to protect cryptocurrency systems. It complements existing ICT frameworks such as ISO 27001 and PCI DSS. Level 3 certification, the highest standard, mandates advanced security measures, including multi-signature wallets, access controls, and disaster recovery planning.

How WhiteBIT Achieved Certification

The certification was conducted by Hacken, a cybersecurity firm accredited by C4. The 2.5-month audit involved a comprehensive review of WhiteBIT's security infrastructure, including cold and hot wallets.
