The Sandbox Teams with Ledger to Bolster Metaverse Security
- The Sandbox has partnered with hardware wallet maker Ledger
- The two companies will share mutual benefits
The Sandbox finds itself among the top metaverse platforms in the space, with thousands of users exploring its virtual lands for exciting experiences. However, the interest in the platform is not limited to players looking for fun but also hackers and scammers.
So, The Sandbox is leveling up its security by partnering with one of the best solution providers in the industry, Ledger .
Protecting The Sandbox
On March 23, The Sandbox announced partnering with top security solution provider Ledger to scale its security stack and treasury management.
Through this partnership, Ledger will offer security integration to brand partners of the metaverse platform, making it easier for them to secure their assets, such as LAND and NFT collections.
The two companies first collaborated in educating crypto users about security measures in the metaverse in April 2022. This marks the second time they are joining forces.
Sebastien Borget, COO and Co-Founder of The Sandbox, added on their relationship with Ledger:
Here’s a quick rundown of what the partnership will bring:
- Ledger will add support for Sandbox assets in its solutions.
- The security solution provider will add a widget for The Sandbox on its desktop app.
- The Sandbox will work with Ledger to recommend its solution lineup to LAND owners.
- The metaverse will migrate all NFTs in its collection wallet to a secure Ledger wallet for added security.
Alex Zinder, Head of Enterprise at Ledger, shared that Web3 projects that create or store digital assets are vulnerable to rising hacks, scams, and mismanagement. The Sandbox works with numerous brands, so it must focus on building trust with its security.
On the Flipside
- The Sandbox was recently compromised . Hackers accessed an employee’s account and sent emails promoting a fake event to users.
Why You Should Care
The Sandbox works with numerous high-profile brands and partners new to Web3. Partnerships with mainstream companies are effective in welcoming newer users into the space who aren’t aware of security measures. With the rising influx of users, the metaverse platform must improve security and make it safer for unaware users.
The partnership with Ledger is a big step in its commitment to building trust and providing a safe and accessible platform to all users.
