Preventing cryptojacking in a crypto exchange requires real-time detection and immediate response. Focus on monitoring resource usage to identify sudden spikes in CPU or GPU activity. Use tools like CrowdStrike or Elastic Security to set up alerts for abnormal patterns and detect malware attempting to exploit system resources.

Protect endpoints with EDR tools like SentinelOne or Carbon Black. These tools block unauthorized processes and identify suspicious behavior. Apply the principle of least privilege to all user accounts and endpoints to limit access.

Block browser-based cryptojacking by using DNS filtering solutions such as Cisco Umbrella. Configure Content Security Policies (CSP) to restrict script execution and prevent unauthorized code injection.

Patch systems regularly and automate updates to eliminate vulnerabilities. Conduct penetration testing frequently to find and fix weak points attackers may exploit. Focus on potential script injection and privilege escalation risks.

Train employees to spot phishing attacks and avoid malicious downloads. Include cryptojacking scenarios in your incident response plan, and ensure the team can quickly isolate affected systems. Use tools like SOAR for automated containment and analysis.

Layering these defenses provides a comprehensive strategy to protect against cryptojacking while maintaining exchange performance and user trust.

Thanks Naina. Can you suggest how to block browser-based cryptojacking using DNS filtering solutions like Cisco Umbrella, and configure Content Security Policies (CSP) to restrict script execution and prevent unauthorized code injection?
