FAQ
-
What is the CCSS standard?
ССSS is a standard for securing cryptocurrency systems created by CryptoCurrency Certification Consortium (C4). CCSS Audit by Hacken ensures compliance with CCSS Levels requirements for Cryptographic Asset Management and Operations Security. The value of a CCSS audit is inside the confidence and community trust.
-
What are the benefits of CCSS Audit?
By achieving compliance with the CCSS, you can build and maintain trust in the market and reduce the risk of a data breach.
Cryptocurrency is a rapidly growing industry, but with this growth comes increased security concerns. Cryptocurrency transactions are often subject to authentication, authorization, and confidentiality limitations, and as a result, the adoption rate of cryptocurrencies is hindered. Many hacks are linked to CCSS Aspects controls or key leaks, so ensuring that your crypto project is secure and trustworthy is essential.
-
How CCSS Audit affects confidence and reputation?
Confidence and reputation are two of the most powerful emotional and business pull triggers that a CCSS audit provides. A CCSS-audited system shows that you’re taking the necessary steps to secure your crypto project and instill confidence in your stakeholders.
At the same time, the concern about cryptocurrency transactions’ authentication, authorization, and confidentiality limitations and the lack of governance from authorities are push triggers that make obtaining a CCSS audit all the more critical. Money stolen from cryptocurrency wallets is often unrecoverable, so it’s important to take every precaution to prevent such losses from occurring.
-
How CCSS relates to other security standards?
CCSS is designed to complement existing information security standards such as ISO 27001, ISO 27017, ISO 27018, and SOC2 Type II.
-
What is the difference between CCSS Levels and system types?
Self-custody, QSP, and Full Systems refer to the differentiation between different types of systems that can achieve a level in CCSS (from 1 to 3). System types don’t represent any level. For level differentiation, there are Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3, with increased security as the level increases.
