One of only two digital asset Qualified Service Providers to achieve this level is the market-leading wallet infrastructure platform Liminal, which recently announced that it had earned CryptoCurrency Security Standard (CCSS) – Qualified Security Provider (QSP) Level 3 certification. A standard for protecting cryptocurrency systems is called the CryptoCurrency Security Standard (CCSS). It is intended to add guidelines for security best practises with regard to cryptocurrencies to existing information security standards (such as ISO 27001:2013). The CryptoCurrency Security Standard was established by cryptocurrency and cybersecurity specialists including Andreas M. Antonopopulous, Michael Perklin, Petri Basson, Jameson Lopp, and S. Dirk Anderson using their years of security and cryptocurrency knowledge (CCSS). With CCSS, businesses and products may have the usability and security of their systems evaluated by a third party, ensuring a balance between the two. This allows customers to choose the businesses and products they want to use with confidence.

Via a thorough, validated security assessment procedure that examined the platform’s security policies, operating procedures, and infrastructure, Liminal received CCSS-QSP Level 3 accreditation. A comprehensive set of security measures, including Liminal’s Hot, Warm, and Cold Wallets, Liminal Secure Transfer Environment, Liminal Authorization Workflow, Liminal Automated Refill Engine, Liminal EVM Fee Saver Workflow, and Liminal Policy Engine, had to be put in place for Liminal to receive certification.

The platform’s recent achievement of CCSS-QSP Level 3 accreditation, ISO 27001:2013, 27701 and SOC2 Type1 and Type2 certifications further demonstrates its dedication to security and compliance. Liminal is in a strong position to offer its users the highest standards of security and privacy thanks to these certifications.
Commenting on this announcement, Manan Vora, SVP of Strategy & Business Operation at Liminal, said, “Liminal’s CCSS-QSP Level 3 certification is a testament to the platform’s commitment to providing the highest level of security and compliance for our users. The CCSS-QSP Level 3 certification is widely recognized as the highest security standard for cryptocurrencies and wallet infrastructure. It ensures that Liminal follows best practices to protect the security of its users and their funds.” He adds, “With this certification, Liminal has established itself as the domain expert in self-custody and security. This will also help us boost the ‘trust’ factor in front of the external stakeholders, including customers, regulators etc. In addition, we will now be able to help our customers in becoming CCSS certified, cultivating a safer digital assets market.”
Jessica Levesque, Executive Director at CryptoCurrency Certification Consortium (C4), said, “C4 has been setting the standard for industry players and operators since its inception in 2014. CCSS audits are distinct in the sense that it takes into account not only the technology itself but also interviews with personnel involved with the system, inspections of system configurations, and the security controls in place. Our goal at C4 is to safeguard the interests of users by maximising the confidentiality of private keys and ensuring the integrity of cryptocurrency funds. We are pleased that Liminal’s wallet infrastructure system attained CCSS-QSP level 3 as we share the same ethos: Don’t trust; verify” You can verify Liminal on C4’s CCSS Certificate of Compliance listing page here: https://cryptoconsortium.org/completed-ccss-audits/
