EpicChain Security Policy

Introduction

EpicChain is dedicated to maintaining the highest standards of security to protect our users, assets, and ecosystem. This security policy outlines the principles, guidelines, and practices that govern our approach to security, ensuring that we safeguard the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of our systems and data.

Scope

This policy applies to all aspects of the EpicChain ecosystem, including but not limited to:

  • EpicChain platform
  • Smart contracts
  • Wallets
  • APIs
  • Websites
  • Mobile applications
  • Infrastructure

Principles

Our security approach is guided by the following principles:

  1. Confidentiality: Ensuring that sensitive information is accessed only by authorized personnel and systems. Measures such as encryption, access controls, and data masking are implemented to prevent unauthorized access to data.

  2. Integrity: Ensuring the accuracy and reliability of data and systems. Measures to prevent unauthorized modification or tampering with data, such as data validation and integrity checks, are employed.

  3. Availability: Ensuring that services are accessible to users when needed. This involves measures to prevent and mitigate service disruptions, such as redundancy, failover systems, and DDoS protection.

  4. Resilience: Being prepared to detect, respond to, and recover from security incidents. This includes having incident response plans, backups, and disaster recovery procedures in place.

  5. Compliance: Adhering to relevant laws, regulations, and standards related to security. This includes measures such as data protection laws, industry standards (e.g., PCI DSS), and regulatory requirements.

Security Measures

To achieve our security goals, we implement the following measures:

  1. Access Control: Utilizing strong authentication mechanisms, role-based access controls (RBAC), and least privilege principles to control access to systems and data, preventing unauthorized access and insider threats.

  2. Data Protection: Encrypting sensitive data both at rest and in transit to prevent unauthorized access. Implementing data masking where appropriate to protect data privacy.

  3. Vulnerability Management: Regularly scanning for and patching vulnerabilities in systems and dependencies to prevent exploitation of known vulnerabilities by attackers.

  4. Incident Response: Maintaining an incident response plan and conducting regular drills to ensure readiness, ensuring that security incidents are detected, contained, and remediated in a timely manner.

  5. Monitoring and Logging: Implementing comprehensive monitoring and logging to detect and respond to security incidents. This includes monitoring for unusual activity, analyzing logs for security events, and retaining logs for forensic purposes.

  6. Training and Awareness: Providing regular security training to all employees and promoting a culture of security awareness, ensuring that employees are aware of security best practices and can recognize and respond to security threats.

  7. Third-Party Security: Evaluating and monitoring the security practices of third-party providers and partners to ensure that they do not introduce security vulnerabilities into the ecosystem.
