How OKX Protects Your Crypto with Industry-Leading Security

For OKX, helping to keep your crypto secure isn’t a perk; it’s a promise. We’ve poured our hearts into building a wallet system from the ground up to keep your crypto secure with the best protection possible. Forget one-size-fits-all security; our multi-layered setup blends cold storage, whitelisted cold-to-hot transfers, multi-signature checks, and constant threat monitoring to help keep attackers at bay and your assets locked down tight.Here’s a closer look at how OKX Protect has your back.

Our Own Wallet System: Built by Us, for You

• Instead of leaning on third-party wallets, we’ve crafted our own hot and cold wallet setup at OKX. How does this keep your crypto secure? Because it lets us:

• Design custom security tailored to meet the highest security standards and address threats based on real-world experience.

• Keep risks from outsiders at bay by owning every piece of the puzzle.

• Stay ahead of new threats with our own updates and innovations.

Cold Wallet Security: Locked Away, Safe and Sound

Most of your assets at OKX are stored in cold wallets: offline vaults completely disconnected from the internet and public networks, making them extremely difficult to access without authorization.

• Offline Sign-Offs: Multiple trusted team members must green-light any move; done in secure, offline places.

• Tight Access: Only a select few can even start the process, cutting the odds of foul play.

• No Solo Acts: No single person can move your money alone, so unauthorized grabs don’t stand a chance.

Whitelisted Transactions

We’ve beefed up security with whitelisted addresses for OKX hot-to-cold and cold-to-hot wallet transfers. Here’s how this keeps your crypto secure:

• Funds only move to addresses we’ve pre-approved—nowhere else.

• We carefully set and manage trusted destinations on our end.

• Any sketchy attempt to send crypto to an unlisted address? Stopped dead in its tracks.

Layered Approval System

Every withdrawal at OKX is protected by a layered approach, using multi-signature and MPC to keep your assets secure. Here’s how it works:

• Multiple approvals safeguard every transaction, reducing the risk of a single slip-up causing harm.

• Both you and our platform tap into these checks for extra layers of safety.

• Even if something slips, your funds stay secure.

Real-Time Risk Monitoring

Great security isn’t just about locking the door; it's about spotting trouble before it knocks. At OKX, we’ve got eyes on everything:

• Round-the-clock scans spot suspicious activity in your transactions and halt anything flagged to protect your assets.

• Instant alerts to tip you and our team off to potential risks.

• Smart AI that learns new tricks to outpace the bad guys.
