Feb 07 2024 |

We are thrilled to announce that FinchTrade has successfully completed a comprehensive penetration test conducted by Hacken on our Web and API systems. The test, which took place from November 28th, 2023, to January 17th, 2024, highlights FinchTrade’s digital platform’s low-risk status.

The Hacken.io team, employing top-tier cybersecurity methodologies including PTES and OWASP, meticulously assessed our systems. The process involved gray box security assessment and a detailed risk analysis, aligning with the highest standards in cybersecurity practices.

Key Highlights

  1. Robust Availability: FinchTrade’s use of containers and microservices enhances system resilience and scalability.
  2. Strong User Security: The platform’s Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) significantly boosts the protection of user accounts.
  3. Effective Transaction Validation: The robust process for transaction validation ensures integrity and security.
  4. Comprehensive Verification Process: Utilization of shared documents for validation highlights a thorough approach to verification.

While the test inherently had its limitations, it’s important to note that our IT team has effectively addressed and resolved the specific vulnerabilities identified, thus, getting the overall risk level at LOW.
