Binance, Deribit revoke SignalPlus API keys after security alert
Both exchanges state user funds remain safe and systems unaffected, urging users to wait for confirmation before reconnecting.
Key takeaways
- 1Binance and Deribit revoked all SignalPlus-linked API keys.
- 2Both exchanges confirmed no impact on their internal systems or user funds.
Binance and Deribit have revoked all API keys linked to the third-party trading platform SignalPlus following a reported security issue.
Binance said it acted proactively after the platform reported a potential security incident, confirming that its own systems were not affected and user funds are safe. Deribit stated it removed the keys as a precaution, noting it found no indication of impact on its data or infrastructure. Both exchanges advised users to review their open positions and wait for SignalPlus to confirm the issue is resolved before reconnecting.
SignalPlus is a third-party platform that allows users to automate trading strategies using APIs connected to major exchanges. This action follows a period of heightened security focus; YourKhabri reported in late October that Binance had covered losses from a previous breach, showing the exchange’s ongoing effort to protect user assets.
The revocation process suggests that third-party integrations remain a point of vulnerability in the crypto space, prompting exchanges to take immediate defensive steps. Users should watch for official statements from SignalPlus confirming the resolution of the security issue before restoring API connections to avoid potential order execution errors.
