CoinFeed reported on April 4th that, according to CoinPost, Japan's Financial Services Agency (FSA) has officially released a policy on strengthening cybersecurity for cryptocurrency exchange operators and other related companies. This policy prioritizes investor asset protection and proposes a three-tiered security framework: self-help (individual operators), collaborative assistance (self-regulatory bodies), and public assistance (regulatory authorities). The policy specifically emphasizes the increasing prevalence of sophisticated attack methods, such as social engineering attacks and intrusions into external contractors, in addition to the theft of signature keys (mnemonic phrases, etc.), and calls for enhanced response capabilities from relevant agencies. Furthermore, the relevant authorities have indicated their intention to incorporate cryptocurrency-related scenarios into a cross-industry cybersecurity exercise called "Delta Wall" to enhance the industry's overall responsiveness.
