What happened and what to do
The Record reports that Brazil's largest cryptocurrency exchange confirmed a cyberattack after blockchain security firms said more than US$ 46 million left the Mercado Bitcoin platform.
For companies handling digital assets, payments or financial transactions, a case like this calls for continuous monitoring of anomalous movements: pipelines that correlate transaction logs, balances and outflows against thresholds and reference patterns, alerts with response rules, and dashboards for the security team. It is also worth reviewing privileged access, key segregation and multi-step approval for withdrawals above a limit. When this data needs AI-assisted analysis, inference can run on the company's own infrastructure, without sending sensitive records to third parties.
