Security

As one of the seasoned players in the cross-chain market, Cubix has elaborated on the robust practices of maintaining security for its users along with SDK and widget integrators.

A high level of security is one of Cubix’s top priorities, and this is what makes Cubix stand out from the crowd in terms of security:

• The integration of multiple bridges and DEXs allows Cubix to switch off the provider that gets out of operation, and redirect the user to a different, working one.

• Cubix has a large infrastructure, team, and developer support, which allows for elaborating on more innovative measures to ensure the safety of swaps.

Cubix never keeps users' funds on its frontend, every transaction is performed via API by sending calls to other smart contracts.

Cubix's staking and treasury smart contracts use Gnosis Safe enabling secure asset management. Sustainability

Due to the aggregation of 350+ bridges and DEXs, Cubix guarantees swaps and sufficient liquidity for a swap even if some of the providers stop operating, run out of liquidity, or get hacked. Thanks to Cubix’s model architecture (Cross-Chain, On-Chain, Status Manager, Token Manager, Revert Manager), it continues to execute basic functions even if there’s something wrong with other modules.

Decentralization

Cubix doesn’t exploit any external servers: only Frontend and Blockchain. This significantly decreases attack vectors (like DDOS). To find the best swap deal for most of the cross-chain and on-chain providers, Cubix appeals to the provider’s API, and then the data is processed through their services.

Open-Source Software

We’re built on open-source software: Our site, validators code, and smart contracts are publicly visible for maximum transparency (Github).

Grants

Cubix has received grants from major blockchain platforms: Celer, deBridge, NEAR, Harmony One, Symbiosis, Bitgert, Polygon, and Telos.

Team

The Cubix team has 20+ members. Our founders have large amounts of experience in the crypto space - starting in 2017 - and you can follow them on their socials. Check out LinkedIn or Twitter.

Performance Monitoring

To ensure the high performance of Cubix’s cross-chain tools, Cubix’s team utilizes Provider/Blockchain Monitoring Dashboard, scores providers for stuck transactions, daily volume, refunds, and checks out SDK live status.

Cubix utilizes automated tools for monitoring social networks for any potential risks with bridges or chains. If any issues arise, we use direct channels of communication with all bridges and providers to react quickly.

Accident Management

If any critical issue arises with one of Cubix’s integrated providers/blockchains, Cubix’s platform as well as Cubix’s SDK/Widget continue to function by taking the following measures: All of Cubix’s integrators are immediately notified (via Discord, Telegram).

1. A compromised provider/bridge is paused in the smart contract and switched off for all integrators, whereas Cubix continues operating by redirecting transactions to other providers.

2. In case of any issues with Cubix’s SDK, Cubix takes the same actions — immediate notification of its integrators and switching off of the compromised provider/bridge. Cubix’s technical support is also ready to assist 24/7.

Cubix’s SDK Process Management

Continuous integration and collaboration with other projects allow Cubix to build up the most robust principles of testing, staging, and production environment. Seamless, fast, and secure SDK management is fulfilled by the following:

1. A code approval process includes the review of several developers and a release approval process includes the review of the Product Manager and QA.

2. The smart contracts are audited.

3. Cubix uses direct communication channels for updates (new version release updates, comments) to reduce the possibility of installing a compromised version.

Cubix is not just a platform enabling cross-chain swaps for individuals, but also a cross-chain toolkit for crypto projects, and all of these principles work for Cubix’s SDK/Widget integrators as well.
