Web 3 presents a challenging landscape, often referred to as a "dark forest," where ordinary users are often vulnerable to various severe attacks. These include private key theft, airdrop scams, rug pulls, phishing websites/dApps, and authentication assaults. As the Web3 ecosystem strives for widespread adoption, ensuring user security becomes a crucial priority. Thus, decentralized applications (dApps) must focus on safety when onboarding new users to build trust and foster mass adoption.
A major study, the "Global Web3 Security Report 2022 & Crypto Regulatory Compliance Research," revealed over 167 major attacks on Web3 in 2022. The losses from these attacks surpassed $3.6 billion, a staggering 47.4% increase compared to the previous year's losses of approximately $2.44 billion. These figures reflect the bleak reality that retail users face, creating hesitancy and impeding the full growth potential of Web3.
GoPlus, known as the user security layer of Web3, is actively addressing this mounting issue through its Web 3.0 safe boundary. In this article, we will delve into how GoPlus Security achieves this, creating a safer and more secure place for all.
What is GoPlus Security?
The GoPlus Security Engine is a novel Web3 security infrastructure system. It functions as an open and permissionless security service platform, catering to all types of blockchain users.
Recognizing the vulnerability of everyday users, especially those transitioning from Web2 or newcomers, GoPlus Security offers a comprehensive suite of Security APIs. These APIs address user security concerns across various aspects of Web3 interactions.
Notably, GoPlus's Security APIs utilize automatic security-detection algorithms, taking a proactive approach to interception rather than passively detecting security issues. This empowers users to have greater control over their Web3 activities.
Moreover, GoPlus Security's API boasts several features covering a wide array of attacks, including Token, Address, NFT, dApps, and Data Decode. This comprehensive approach ensures that users can seamlessly integrate GoPlus's API into their daily Web3 operations.
GoPlus Security: A Journey So Far
In months of operation, it has gathered an impressive 10 million API queries per day across its flagship Security APIs:
- Token Security API has now supported 19 public chains, covering more than 3M tokens, and has discovered more than 2M risky tokens.
- Malicious Address API, a comprehensive library of more than 9 million suspicious addresses available on 8 public chains.
- GoPlus Security’s NFT Security API is currently the market-leading with full coverage of more than 160M projects and more than 4M+ verified NFTs.
- Approval Security API: This API actively mitigates risks in token approvals, maintaining an expanding database of over 100,000 suspicious contracts, and guaranteeing secure transactions.
- dApp Security Info API and Signature Data Decode API: These sophisticated services provide risk alerts and decode ABI data to identify abnormalities, supported by a vast repository of contract source codes and transaction methods.
These API solutions have garnered significant trust, as more than 30+ industry-leading Web3 projects have integrated GoPlus Security's engine to secure their dApps and prioritize their users' safety. From a browser like Opera, and a full-fledged crypto wallet like OneKey, to an innovative Web3 Social Tool like Mask Network, the intricacies of GoPlus’s Security APIs are seamlessly integrated with various groups of dApps.
A Security-Centric Approach for both Web3 Retail Users and Developers.
While GoPlus’s APIs’ credit can be attributed to its developer-friendly features, GoPlus also struck a balance with Web3 retail users for its GoPlusEco. GoPlusEco operated as a one-stop-shop for Web3 security, yet, as the name suggested, the platform vision itself as a security ecosystem.
The marketplace brings an unparalleled level of personalization, catering to retail users' unique needs and preferences with tailored product recommendations. By connecting their wallets, users unlock access to crucial services like risk detection, safety information, market tools, insurance options, asset tracking, and secure custody solutions, creating a seamless and truly customized experience.
From the marketplace, developers, also find themselves with a diverse range of tools at their disposal. From cutting-edge security analysis to efficient deployment and testing frameworks, developers can elevate their work and optimize their processes to deliver top-notch solutions. Project teams benefit from an array of services, including contract monitoring, node provisioning, data storage, and advanced DAO tooling, among other offerings.
On top of that, they recently introduced a GoPlus ChatGPT Plugin. This innovative product marks a further stride in dismantling barriers to secure Web3 access. Designed with precision, the GoPlus ChatGPT Plugin addresses the challenge of user security in the Web3 landscape. Whether you are well-versed in the intricacies of Web3, an ardent participant in its various facets, an expert in auditing, or simply someone exploring its possibilities, the GoPlus ChatGPT Plugin caters to all. It stands as a testament to intuitive design, aimed at eradicating complexities and ensuring that user security becomes an achievable, understandable, and actionable goal for all.
