Sentinel protocol is a security intelligence platform for blockchain or exchange that collects hacking reports and delegates it to a panel of trusted security experts who will confirm the authenticity of the incident and register the received information to Threat Reputation Database. It is intelligence-based threat analysis algorithm that includes a variety of features such as Anti-theft, detecting malformed or bad actors, threat prevention and transaction traceability. It contains three crucial functionalities that, on the whole, make the Sentinel Protocol.

Threat Reputation Database

The threat reputation database keeps threat information in a single database. The database is stored in a global platform where the threats are stored in the database by anyone and get incentivized in return.

Security Wallet (S-Wallet) Integrated with Machine Learning

The sentinel protocol also detects suspicious activities, blacklist wallet address, scam sites and use Fraud Detection System (FDS). The underlying Security Wallet not only secures the trader’s funds but also protect them against various wallet related attacks. It provides data filtering, wallet address filtering and URL filtering.

Malware Analysis Sandbox

Sandbox is a security mechanism that runs unverified programs on a separate virtual machine without affecting the host. Sentinel protocol’s sandbox overcomes various roadblocks by high throughput, malware detection and higher throughput in case of sandbox’s malfunctioning.
