AI company EVA reveals initial AI-centered antivirus designed for enhanced Web3 security.
In the rapidly evolving world of decentralized finance and Web3, security has become a paramount concern for users. To address this need, EVA AI, a leading provider of decentralized security solutions, has introduced EVA Sentinel Extension – a browser-based antivirus tool designed specifically for Web3 users.
EVA Sentinel is engineered to tackle security threats at the point of contact, before users engage in transactions or connect their digital wallets. Upon visiting a site or interacting with on-chain elements, the extension automatically flags security risks and intercepts threats, preventing transactions from being initiated.
One of the key features of EVA Sentinel is its ability to block conventional ads and popups, which are often used in phishing attacks. Full Web3 protection can be enabled within a minute of installation.
Currently, the extension is available for installation on Chrome and Brave browsers. EVA Sentinel is built with privacy in mind, requiring no wallet connection, not managing private keys, and not storing personal data.
The ultra protection mode proactively disables Web3 scripts on untrusted sites, allowing users to manually whitelist or blacklist specific domains. The extension's interface includes a Threat-Level Indicator, displaying a color-coded EVA logo (green for safe, yellow for caution, red for danger).
EVA Sentinel employs artificial intelligence to perform real-time audits of tokens and smart contracts, while blocking malicious scripts automatically. It also integrates a decentralized trust system, aggregating community input to refine and strengthen threat detection capabilities across the broader EVA network.
The tool introduces a suite of advanced capabilities, including real-time token and contract analysis, malicious script blocking, and an ultra protection mode. EVA AI plans to release an upgraded version, EVA Plus, in June, offering enhanced AI security features and premium layers for advanced users and institutional applications.
In 2024, over $1.7 billion was lost by Web3 participants due to scams and vulnerabilities, many of which stemmed from concealed malicious code hidden in smart contracts or website scripts. With EVA Sentinel, Web3 users can now navigate the digital landscape with increased confidence and security.
Users can access the EVA Widget to view active smart contracts on a page, perform instant audits, monitor live transactions, and pre-scan tokens. This tool is positioned as a potential game-changer in the decentralized security landscape due to its real-time AI protection addressing Web3's unique vulnerabilities.
While the founder or leadership of EVA AI, the maker of EVA Sentinel, is not explicitly mentioned in the provided search results, the tool is poised to make a significant impact in the realm of Web3 security.
