Enable advanced security scanning in the Portal Admin Dashboard to protect your users from malicious transactions and domain connections using Blockaid’s robust security features.
Advanced security scanning enhances the security of your users’ crypto transactions and their dApp connections by integrating Blockaid’s powerful threat detection directly into your Portal environment. This feature can be easily enabled or disabled through the Portal Admin Dashboard, under the Settings page in the “Security” section.
This feature is rate limited by default. If you require a higher rate limit, please contact Portal’s support team for assistance.
Within the “Security” section, you will find an option to enable Advanced Security Scanning. By enabling this feature, Portal will automatically generate a Blockaid API Key specific to your current Portal environment (“Development” or “Production”).
Once enabled, requests made by your users on supported chains will be validated through Blockaid. Portal currently supports transaction validation and simulation on all EVM and Solana chains that Blockaid supports.If a transaction is detected as malicious, it will be blocked and an error message will be returned: “Firewall: Transaction is malicious”.
In addition to transaction validation, any attempt by your users to connect to a dApp via PortalConnect (WalletConnect) will trigger a URL validation through Blockaid when Advanced Security Scanning is enabled. Should the domain be identified as malicious, the connection attempt will be blocked with the error message: “Blocking connection attempt from malicious domain: [domain].”Congratulations! 🎉 You’re now protecting your users web3 experiences with the Portal Advanced Security Scanning feature. Feel free to reach out to our support team if you have any questions!
