DTS launches Frontal – Blockchain and Web3 Frontliners

Achieving great heights in the digital world, DTS Solution is now scaling to secure the Web3 & Blockchain space.

Did you know? As of today, 1st June 2022, the crypto ecosystem has been depleted by approximately $14 Billion within a matter of 3 years primely, and this will not stop. The hackers don’t sleep, but guess what? DTS doesn’t sleep either. DTS Solution has recently launched a specialized business unit that combats Web3 and Blockchain cyberattacks and protects the space against malicious & fraudulent activities.

What does Frontal mean? (literally)

The military tactic of frontal assault is a direct, full-force attack to the front line of an enemy force, rather than to the flanks or rear of the enemy.

That made sense, right?

Frontal – Frontliners in Web3 and Blockchain Cybersecurity is a specialized unit in Blockchain and Web3.0 cybersecurity. Securing Digital Assets, Cryptocurrency, DeFi, Blockchain, and Web3.0 ecosystem. We are all geared up to serve the new frontier of the digital economic revolution, helping digital asset trading, crypto exchanges, and custody platforms achieve fully regulated status with licenses. Frontal is a part of DTS Solution LLC, which also operates HawkEye (24×7 Managed CSOC and XDR), FYNSEC (Cloud SASE), and Complyan (Cybersecurity Compliance as a Service Platform).

Frontal is a suite of expanded Blockchain and Web3.0 cybersecurity services and solutions combating next-gen vulnerabilities & threats within the digitalized industry while being equipped with highly certified and qualified specialists, auditors, and ethical hackers, which makes Frontal not only great, but a leading cybersecurity consulting company in the Web3 and Blockchain space.

Having worked with regulated financial institutions, DTS Solution understood that the Virtual Asset industry would have to operate within financial crime regulatory frameworks to reach its full potential. Frontal’s mission is to bring scalability, security, and privacy to your platform/application.

As the technology matures, new blockchains emerge, and regulations evolve – but Frontal’s mission has remained the same: To protect our customers from financial crime & provide maximum security on their platforms.

Why is this needed?

Everyone is concerned about cybersecurity today, and they should be as cyber-attacks are on the rise. However, whenever a new IT advance comes along, people ask, “How secure is it?”

Blockchain is a relatively new technology initially created to support Bitcoin. However, the technology’s popularity has soared, and people are discovering that Blockchain has uses that go beyond cryptocurrency. Naturally, this newfound popularity begs the question of Blockchain’s safety and integrity.

As we are experiencing the exponential market growth of Blockchain, the global blockchain technology market size was valued at USD 5.92 billion in 2021 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 85.9% from 2022 to 2030. Not taking in-charge of the cybersecurity would not be a very smart idea, right?

What is Blockchain Security?

We begin by reminding ourselves about Blockchain itself and what it is. Blockchain is a distributed ledger technology (DLT) designed to engender trust and confidence in an environment. Blockchain is a decentralized ledger system that’s duplicated and distributed across a whole network of computer systems. It allows information access to all designated nodes or members who can record, share, and view encrypted transactional data on their Blockchain.

Blockchain technology gathers and stores information in groups, also called “blocks,” and each block can hold a certain amount of data. When the block reaches capacity, it is chained to the previous full block, creating a chain of data, hence the clever name “blockchain.”

Blockchain security is a complete risk management system for blockchain networks, incorporating assurance services, cybersecurity frameworks, and best practices to mitigate the risks of fraud and cyber-attacks.

Blockchain technology’s data structures have inherent security qualities because they are based on consensus, cryptography, and decentralization principles. Each new block of information connects to all the previous blocks so that it’s nearly impossible to tamper with. In addition, all transactions in a block get validated and agreed on by a consensus mechanism (authorized users), guaranteeing that each transaction is true and accurate. Thus, there is no point of failure, and a user can’t change transaction records.

What Are the Types of Blockchain?

Private Blockchains

Private blockchain networks require an invitation. Users must be validated by either the network’s central administrator or starter or by a rule set put in place by the network’s administrator. Businesses that use private blockchains typically set up a permissioned network. Permissioned networks limit who can participate in the network and the types of transactions they can initiate. In any case, participants need either an invitation or permission to join.

Public Blockchains

Public blockchains focus on participation and transparency. Transaction consensus is “decentralized,” meaning anyone can participate in validating network transactions, and the software code is open-source and available to the public (e.g., Bitcoin and Ethereum).

Consortium Blockchains

Typically, public and private blockchains are the only ones mentioned when discussing blockchains. However, there is a third option: consortium blockchains. Consortium blockchains consist of known participants preapproved by a central authority to participate in the consensus within a blockchain network. This “semi-permissioned” approach allows a network to be distributed or partly decentralized, yet still allowing for a degree of control over it. Incidentally, transaction data in consortium blockchains can be kept private.

Way to go

There are no silver bullets in infosec, and Blockchain is no exception. Decentralized systems are subject to similar risks as other computers. Blockchain is high-assurance software that is not intrinsically secure — but it does lay a foundation for secure transactions at scale, and this capability is vital to continue scaling internet services. It’s also important to remember that decentralized technologies don’t automatically create decentralized power; there is a long way to go in that area. Security pros can help by promoting the building of equitable power structures into Web3 systems and recognizing that security and privacy are critical features of such systems. Frontal works very closely with the industry; therefore, it has a bug bounty launching platform partnered with Crowdswarm, which allows different projects to launch their bug bounties, which would result in hunting for bugs on their platforms that would reward the bug hunter.

Frontal takes the lead in security of web3 & blockchain space, making it safer for the entire world in the great migration of 2022.

Nothing on the internet is safe. Not even Blockchain
