The cryptocurrency analysis platform CoinGlass has confirmed that it was the target of a sophisticated proxy attack, causing its website and services to be temporarily disrupted. According to an official statement, this was a “large-scale proxy attack” aimed at the company's infrastructure. Although the incident only lasted for a short-term, many users in different areas reported that the platform was inaccessible or operating very slowly.
CoinGlass reports that the system has currently been restored and most users can access it normally. The company's technical and security team is conducting a comprehensive investigation into the “scope, origin, and purpose” of the attack to prevent similar risks in the future. This incident raises concerns about cybersecurity for increasingly popular cryptocurrency data platforms.
