Moonstake Collaborates with deBridge to Enable Cross-chain Bridge for Assets and NFTs
 |
Moonstake launched its staking business in 2020 with the aim to create the largest staking network in Asia. Since then, it has developed the most user-friendly Web Wallet and Mobile Wallet (iOS/Android) with support for over 2000 cryptocurrencies. Currently, Moonstake supports 14 high-demand staking coins: Cosmos, IRIS, Ontology, Harmony, Tezos, Cardano, Qtum, Polkadot, Quras, Centrality, Orbs, IOST, TRON, and Shiden. After a full-scale operation launched in August 2020, Moonstake's total staking assets have grown rapidly to reach $1.8 Billion and by June 2021, Moonstake was the third best staking provider in the world out of 15,000 staking providers worldwide. In March 2021, the company entered DeFi with Muse.Finance, a DeFi platform, and will continue to expand into the DeFi business.
deBridge is a cross-chain interoperability and liquidity transfer protocol that allows truly decentralized transfer of arbitrary data and assets between various blockchains. The cross-chain intercommunication of deBridge smart contracts is powered by the network of independent validators elected by deBridge governance. These elected validators, which now includes Moonstake through this partnership, run a full node of each supported blockchain and the deBridge node to perform validation of cross-chain transactions that pass between smart contracts of the deBridge protocol in different chains.
deBridge commenced during the Chainlink Global Hackathon where the team strived to solve the urgent problems of transferring data and liquidity between blockchains and the lack of a single decentralized standard for bridging assets. The project was awarded the grand prize, taking first place among more than 140 teams worldwide.
On the collaboration, Founder of Moonstake, Mitsuru Tezuka, says: "As one of the world-leading staking providers, Moonstake is happy to support deBridge in building a truly decentralized cross-chain interoperability framework for blockchains, protocols, and applications as an official validator. We are very impressed with deBridge technical prowess and strong vision for not only technological innovation but also security for users, both of which are also key values that align with the vision of Moonstake to enable users the most advanced, safe, and friendly experience with digital assets.".
Alex Smirnov, CEO of deBridge, comments: "Our team is thrilled that Moonstake will be a part of deBridge's validator network to facilitate security and reliability. It's important for us to have experienced validators when we're building cross-chain infrastructure, and we're looking forward to working with Moonstake moving forward.

Horangi Warden Named a High Performer Across Multiple Cloud Security Categories in the G2 Winter Reports 2022
The G2 High Performer award is based on customer reviews, which saw Warden rank as the top Cloud Security Software provider across customer satisfaction metrics such as 'Ease of Doing Business With', the 'Quality of Support Offered', and 'Value for Money'. Warden is also featured in the Top 5 for Cloud Data Security Software and the Small-Business Grid category for Cloud Security Software, having various small tech businesses the likes of Vaultbox and SafeGraph under its belt. In addition, Warden is among the Top 10 for Cloud Compliance Software as it boasts both international and ASEAN-specific compliance standards including ISO 27001, SOC 2, and MAS TRM.
Warden is a human-centric cloud security platform that protects organizations in the public cloud using advanced threat detection and response capabilities. As of today, Warden supports the 5 largest cloud security providers of Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Microsoft Azure, Alibaba Cloud, and Huawei Cloud. This new G2 recognition comes on the heels of Horangi being featured in a Gartner 2021 security report highlighting vendors in the Cloud Identity and Entitlement Management (CIEM) space.
"With high scores rated across features including Compliance Monitoring, Anomaly Detection, and Policy Enforcement from the G2 Winter Report, Horangi is humbled to be recognized by our customers for the impact Warden has had on their infrastructure." said Paul Hadjy, CEO and Co-founder of Horangi. "Horangi is committed to helping our customers succeed at every stage. As cloud security continues to be a top concern for organizations going into 2022, Warden's ease of deployment and threat prioritization capabilities will be key in helping teams navigate the growing cloud adoption."
According to IBM Security, misconfigurations and compromised credentials remain a leading cause of security incidents involving cloud. Horangi recently shared that more than 60% of misconfigurations detected by Warden in 2021 were flagged as critical or high in severity, with the potential to lead to a data breach.
Fresh off its SOC 2 Type II certification, Horangi looks to enhance the advanced security analytics in Warden in 2022. The Singapore-based company plans to add User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA) and Identity and Access Management (IAM) Right-sizing, both of which are increasingly critical in helping organizations prevent attacks from stolen credentials and lateral movement within the cloud.
