Security built on experience
As finance, technology, and crypto veterans we understand the importance of security.
We know firsthand what sophisticated digital fraud and theft look like because we employ Certified Information Systems Security Professionals (CISSP) who have decades of experience solving some of the most difficult cyber crimes. Our veteran team experiences drove us to build Earnity with a security-first mindset.
We invest considerable resources in a highly experienced security team, industry leading security tools, and third-party assessments and penetration testing.
Secure communication with Earnity
All of our communication will happen via valid Earnity email or through the messaging service on our application. Our emails always come from our @Earnity.com domain name, and never from any other email — even if very similar.

Once you fund your Earnity account or transfer crypto into your Earnity wallet, Two-factor authentication (2FA) utilizing an authenticator app is required to keep your Earnity account safe.
We check for strong passwords on account creation and password reset. All passwords are hashed when stored in our database.
Licenses & regulations
Earnity is licensed by the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) as a Money Service Business. We are headquartered in the heart of Silicon Valley.
We build relationships with U.S. regulators to understand the most current regulatory requirements for cryptocurrency and decentralized finance organizations.
Internal controls
We have a multiple signature (multi-sig) security setup, which requires many steps to transfer cryptocurrency out of our third party custody storage system.
We use industry-leading access management tools to actively monitor and audit all company-wide account access activity.
All employees undergo rigorous background checks and are subject to ongoing screening throughout their employment.
We maintain a security-first culture across our teams and proactively educate all of our employees on the latest security threats in our industry.
