Introducing Lockchain.ai, the First AI-Powered Blockchain Risk Management Platform
Introducing Lockchain.ai, the First AI-Powered Blockchain Risk Management Platform
After a year in stealth, we are excited today to officially launch Lockchain.ai, the market’s first AI-powered risk management platform for blockchain. Our Blockchain Risk Management Platform (BRMP) – a new category in the market – sets the standards for mature risk management in digital assets and gives traders, investors, and fund managers much-needed solutions for securing the blockchain ecosystem and reducing black swan events.
Aidan Kehoe, former CEO of the Barracuda Networks-acquired SKOUT Cybersecurity, and I founded Lockchain.ai with Matt Higgins to bring automated risk management and security solutions to cryptocurrency trading and digital currency asset management, an industry that’s been underserved for too long. As former CEO of Kudelski Security, I helped some of the world’s largest companies with managed detection and response (MDR) services and provided in-demand smart contract auditing through the company’s Blockchain Security Center.
Based on our experiences and lessons learned, we created Lockchain.ai to fill an urgent need in the market: a real-time risk management and security platform that gives both security and non-security investment professionals the capabilities to navigate the changing – and challenging – landscape that is the cryptocurrency industry.
While smart contract audits are important, they are just one piece of the puzzle when it comes to securing digital currencies on and off chain. Our SaaS platform complements existing security professional services by offering critical risk management and security infrastructure to give clients unprecedented real-time visibility and transparency.
Unlike some solutions that require security experts, Lockchain.ai transforms the complex world of cryptocurrency into continuous straightforward and actionable insights for traders and asset managers. Further, our platform ingests and leverages data from a variety of sources, including web3, that enables clients to understand risks that may affect their portfolio. As more Bitcoin ETFs come online, the ability to examine custodians and counterparties involved with portfolios and reconciling on- and off-chain risks based on real-world events is critical.
We’re excited for more users to reap the benefits of the Lockchain.ai platform, as well as future offerings to boost its capabilities that are already in the works. Interested customers can sign up for more information through our website and join a webinar on April 9th to learn more
We made a decision early to build Lockchain.ai with a small but senior team. We were fortunate to recruit some long-time friends with serious technical chops and some new friends with years of experience in the market. It has been a fun journey for the past year because of the people. We have also leaned heavily on a network of advisors and partners that were critical to our success to date.
Finally, I’d be remiss if I didn’t thank our funders and backers, who include industry leaders from across cybersecurity, digital currency, and crypto. We started this company during the middle of the crypto winter, believing this was the best time to build, and are thankful for those that believed in us.
While there are too many to specifically thank, Ben Lerer and Andrea Hippeau at Lerer Hippeau deserve a special call out and our gratitude for being the first to believe in us during a difficult time in the market. A hat tip as well to my long-time friend Matt Comyns from Artico Search for the introduction to Aidan and Matt Higgins.
Some clichés are true; security is a shared responsibility and our systems are only as strong as their weakest link. Digital currencies are here to stay and Lockchain.ai is the pioneering solution that will help eliminate weak links and protect the future of the industry.
Cheers,
Andrew
