HAPI is a decentralized, blockchain-agnostic cybersecurity protocol designed to detect and prevent malicious activities in the blockchain space. It functions as a robust cybersecurity solution by utilizing trustless oracles to gather both on-chain and off-chain data and embeds smart contracts into DeFi protocols and decentralized exchanges (DEXs) for secure transaction routing.
HAPI operates by integrating directly into DeFi protocols and DEXs, providing real-time monitoring and alert systems to prevent illicit activities. It employs a reporting and alert system that enables users to report malicious actors through a publicly available Report & Check Interface (RCI). This system ensures that all network participants are promptly informed of any threats. Additionally, HAPI maintains a publicly accessible, on-chain database allowing easy API or smart contract integration for easy vetting of wallet addresses against malicious activities.
HAPI's main use cases include:
HAPI Protocol was created by Hacken Foundation, a cybersecurity agency based in Ukraine, and was launched in March 2021. The team behind HAPI, led by founder Dona Mara, consists of professionals with deep expertise in cybersecurity and blockchain technology. Since its inception, HAPI has focused on integrating with DeFi protocols and creating a unique cybersecurity agency, HAPI Labs, to actively investigate security issues. The protocol continues to evolve, expanding its security features and market presence, with significant partnerships enhancing its cybersecurity capabilities.
