CertiK published its HACK3D Security Report for Q3 2024, revealing that crypto
hacks continue to be a critical issue for the sector. The blockchain• Информационные технологии » Информационно-коммуникационные технологии » Информационные технологии и телекоммуникации » Базы данных » Публичная база транзакций » Блокчейн

firm underscored the “need for stronger security measures across the industry
as malicious actors continue to adapt and develop new methods to target the
industry.

From July to September, hacks declined by 14%, reaching 155 incidents, 27
fewer than in the second quarter. This number has steadily declined throughout
the year, with Q3’s total number of hacks representing a 30% drop from the
first quarter’s 224 attacks.

However, the total value lost in Q3 increased by 9.5% from Q2, suggesting that
the hacks were more substantial on average. During this quarter, the industry
saw around $735 million lost to attacks.

Comparatively, CertiK identified $505.5 million and $687.4 million losses in
the first two quarters, totaling nearly $2 billion in value lost year-to-date
(YTD). The report noted that the return rate of stolen funds significantly
decreased quarter on quarter (QOQ), going from 14.4% in Q2 to only 4.1% in Q3.

Ethereum• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Ethereum remained the most targeted network, with $387.8 million stolen in 86
accidents. Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin was the second-largest loser by amount, with $238 million,
but registered on a single accident. Meanwhile, hackers took $89.83 million in
attacks orchestrated across multiple chains.

$668 Million Lost To Phishing And PKC

Phishing scams and private key compromises accounted for $668 million stolen
in Q3, around 91% of the total value lost last quarter. The report revealed
that phishing is still the costliest in Q3, sweeping over $343 million between
65 incidents. Two out of the three largest attacks belonged in this category.

The most notable case was the theft of 4,100 Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin from a crypto investor in
Washington. The scheme used “sophisticated social engineering tactics” to
defraud the victim and fund the scammers’ lavish lifestyle. However, the two
suspects have been arrested and charged with conspiring to steal and money
laundering
.

Private key compromises (PKC) were last quarter s second-largest
scamming method, taking over $324.4 million across ten incidents. Indian
crypto exchange WazirX’s heist is the largest victim of this vector in Q3.

The exchange fell victim to a security breach that resulted in losing $235
million in cryptocurrencies• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта, including SHIB, ETH, MATIC, PEPE, and USDT. Since
the beginning of 2024, CertiK has registered 49 PKC incidents, recording an
estimated loss of $675 million YTD.

security firm concluded that, despite the progress, the
industry remains vulnerable and suggested that better user education on
security measures is key to fighting malicious actors:

Despite advancements in security, hacks remain a persistent threat in the
crypto space. As the industry evolves, so do the tactics of attackers, who
continue to exploit vulnerabilities in both centralized and decentralized
platforms. While the decrease in the number of hacks this quarter is
encouraging, the increase in total amount stolen serves as a reminder that
better user education and more sophisticated security measures are essential
to protect assets and maintain trust in the ecosystem.
