The #AiXBT遭黑客攻击 incident once again reminds us that both trading bot developers and users need to continuously pay attention to security and take necessary protective measures. Here are several key suggestions that can help trading platforms and users reduce the risk of similar attacks:

Security Measures on the Platform Side

Strengthen Authentication: Implement Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to ensure the security of administrators and API users.

Principle of Least Privilege (PoLP): Limit the permissions of API keys to only allow necessary operations and rotate keys regularly.

Anomaly Behavior Monitoring: Use machine learning or behavior analysis to detect abnormal trading patterns and identify suspicious activities early.

Log Review and Alert Mechanism: Record and monitor all changes in the management backend and API access in real-time, notifying the development team immediately upon detecting anomalies.

Cold and Hot Wallet Separation: Ensure that most funds are stored in cold wallets to reduce losses when hot wallets are attacked.

Security Measures on the User Side

Protect API Keys:

Absolutely do not store API keys in public code repositories (like GitHub).

Use environment variables or encryption methods to store API keys and avoid hard coding.

Choose Trusted Trading Bots: Ensure that the bot developers have a good security record and regularly update their code.

Set Trading Risk Control Mechanisms:

Limit the maximum amount of a single trade or the trading frequency.

Set stop-loss and take-profit orders to prevent unexpected losses.

Avoid Using Public WiFi for Trading: Ensure your network environment is secure to prevent Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attacks.

Although this incident caused significant losses, it also highlighted the importance of security in the entire cryptocurrency trading ecosystem—security must come first. Traders, what are your thoughts on this incident? Feel free to discuss in the comments!
