Is it open source?

PreviousCoverageNextHow is it different?

Last updated 3 months ago

Sentinel3's code is split into its frontend code and backend algorithm. The frontend code, like all Chrome extensions published in the Chrome Store, is open source, which means anyone can access it, and it can't be obfuscated per the .

Sentinel3's backend code and algorithm is a proprietary, closed source code for two simple reasons:

  1. If scammers learn how Sentinel3's algorithm detects scams, , endangering our users.

  2. Sentinel3 is the most powerful Web3 security solution, backed by 0 user losses and up to $30k of coverage. The algorithm and its engines are proprietary to protect our intellectual property.

At no point does Kerberus have control or access to your private keys.

Would you give the world the keys to your house's alarm system? We wouldn't. That's why Sentinel3's backend source code is proprietary and closed source.
