In recent years, digital currencies have gained significant popularity and are increasingly becoming a mainstream form of payment and investment. However, with this rise in popularity comes a new set of challenges, particularly in cybersecurity. Safeguarding digital currencies against cyber threats is paramount to ensure their integrity, security, and continued adoption. This blog post explores the role of cybersecurity, particularly SafeNet’s solutions, in safeguarding digital currencies.
