Business Digital Index has released a research report in which our team analyzed the external cybersecurity posture of 24 leading cryptocurrency exchanges.

Some of the key findings include:

• Only 3 of the 24 analyzed cryptocurrency exchanges earned an A grade for cybersecurity.
   
• The top-rated exchanges — Biconomy, Toobit, and Deepcoin — exhibited almost no externally visible security weaknesses and (almost) no evidence of corporate credentials circulating on the dark web.
•  Password reuse remains widespread, as 63% of exchanges were found to have employees who have reused their passwords across multiple services in the past.
•  Coinbase ranked second-to-last in the analysis, with 24 unpatched vulnerabilities identified in its externally-facing systems, alongside thousands of exposed corporate credentials and numerous SSL/TLS configuration issues.
•  LBank was flagged for particularly poor security, with 11 critical vulnerabilities left unpatched.

The full report, which includes cybersecurity scores for each analyzed cryptocurrency exchange and more, is available here:
