Thank you so much for this amazing video! I have a quick question: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (wonder obey dial dash soon tank spike scout region undo zero such). Could you explain how to move them to Binance?
I should preface this by saying I'm in this industry, which is probably why YT recommended this video.
Whilst I agree with most of what you've said, I'm not sure you're actually following your own advice. Out of curiosity, I had a brief look at your site. There are so many security issues; even the most basic of protections haven't been adopted, which doesn't instil confidence.
DMARC: Misconfigured – Someone's left "Edit Remove" in the tag when they copied/pasted the public key!
MTA-STS: No
SPF: No
DKIM: No
Directory Indexing: Enabled – Files visible which shouldn't be.
Debugging enabled in production: Big no no, "business" @ iad1-shared/dreamhost etc
HSTS: No
CSP: No
Referrer Policy: No
Permissions Policy: No
With all due respect, I wouldn't entertain a security company which hasn't protected itself against the basics. "Experiance, work ethic & passion [..] covering Lanchashire" isn't a great look either.
I understand a shoemaker's child often goes barefoot, but imagine being a customer, watching this video (which talks about separating itself from others, demanding better, locking down security & getting your ducks in order etc)… then finding you haven't done it.
Forget plastering the site with Cyber Essentials and other tacky badges and focus on real-world, impactful security. If this is the first time you're hearing of these issues, there's a breakdown in procedure/policy too… not just basic security.
