At Web3Firewall, our goal is to eliminate fraud in financial transactions, and we are pioneering new fraud detection and prevention methods by harnessing the power of AI and Deep Learning. Our platform detects over 30 distinct types of fraudulent crimes, analyzes over 120 million blockchain transactions per day, and saves our customers millions of dollars each month.
