Is our code open?

Open Source Frontend

The frontend code of Osiris, like all Chrome extensions available on the Chrome Store, is fully open source. This transparency allows anyone to review the code, ensuring that our commitment to security and user trust is verifiable by the community. It also complies with the , which mandates that the user-facing portion of the extension cannot be obfuscated.

Proprietary Backend Security Engine

In contrast, the backend security engine and its sophisticated algorithms are proprietary and kept closed source. There are two main reasons for this approach:

Safeguarding Intellectual Property: The technology behind Osiris represents years of dedicated research and development. By protecting our proprietary algorithms, we preserve the uniqueness of our solution and maintain a competitive edge in the rapidly evolving Web3 security landscape.

Protection of Detection Methodologies: Revealing the inner workings of our detection algorithms could allow malicious actors to study and potentially circumvent our security measures. By keeping the backend closed, we prevent scammers from developing techniques to bypass our system, thereby ensuring robust protection for our users.

Uncompromised User Security

Osiris is engineered to deliver industry-leading Web3 security without ever having control over or accessing your private keys. This guarantees that while our systems work tirelessly in the background to detect and mitigate threats, your personal data and assets remain solely under your control.

A Balanced Ecosystem of Trust and Innovation

The deliberate split between an open source frontend and a closed source backend creates a balanced ecosystem that offers both transparency and high-level security. Osiris leverages community insights through its open code while defending against sophisticated threats with its cutting-edge, proprietary detection engine.

This dual approach makes Osiris one of the most advanced and trustworthy security solutions in the Web3 space, ensuring that you can confidently navigate the decentralized world while your assets remain secure.
