Blockchain transactions are distributed in a way where network gatekeepers help facilitate the security of the blockchain. Building on this, FINX SHIELD will utilize big data and blockchain, powering Artificial Intelligence to disrupt the cybersecurity technology landscape. By collecting big data and incentivizing individuals and organisations, FINX SHIELD’s end goal is to make threat data freely available to the general public. 

"Through a network of proficient individuals and organizations, FINX tokens will be rewarded to contributors to the FINX Ecosystem," explains Henry Chai, CEO of FINX. "With participation and cooperation across the blockchain sphere, the FINX Ecosystem will become the new standard across the cybersecurity industry to ensure security, privacy and trust for establishments dealing with data, digital finance, and personal data security," he says. According to a FINX whitepaper on FINX SHIELD, the data provided is expected to power many cybersecurity-related products and eventually become the world’s largest cyber threat detector powered by blockchain.

With the introduction of FINX SHIELD, FINX envisions being the leader in cybersecurity thanks to their expertise in the blockchain terrain. Moreover, with its recent partnership with global digital asset trading platforms BigONE and Biconomy, as well as popular cryptocurrency platform Coinovy, FINX will be able to leverage more resources as it builds a more robust and secure cybersecurity shield and defence.
