Huobi HTX reminds users to pay attention to ensuring the security of their exchange accounts, always be aware of security, and avoid asset losses.
Recently, there have been frequent security incidents related to exchange accounts, and there are signs of upgraded attack methods. In response, Huobi HTX reminds users to pay attention to ensuring the security of their exchange accounts, always be aware of security, and avoid asset losses.
Recent Security Incidents and Analysis of Causes
Case One: A user's browser cookies were hijacked due to a malicious Chrome plugin called Aggr, allowing hackers to bypass password/2FA verification and transfer $1 million in assets through a method called "brute force" on a certain exchange account.
Case Two: A user claimed that scammers purchased all of his personal information on Telegram, then used the forgotten password feature to change his phone number, email, and even Google Authenticator through a synthesized video created by AI. Within 24 hours, over $2 million in assets were lost from his account on a certain exchange.
From the above cases, it can be seen that with the development of AI technology, hackers and scammers have also adopted new tactics. Users should pay attention to protecting their information security. For large assets, it is important to ensure isolation and privacy protection, such as disabling third-party plugins and timely logging out.
