MEXC Passes Hacken Security Audit as Exchanges Face Higher Security Demands

The exchange says the audit found no critical vulnerabilities in its mobile application.

As regulatory attention on crypto exchanges continues to intensify, MEXC has completed a security audit by cybersecurity firm Hacken, which reported no critical or high-risk vulnerabilities in the exchange’s mobile app.

The audit applied Hacken’s standard penetration testing methodology to evaluate the platform’s exposure to known attack vectors, including threats to user data and unauthorized fund access. The firm noted that all minor issues identified in the early stages of testing were resolved ahead of the final report.

Hacken also reviewed the exchange’s operational architecture, particularly its systems for trade execution, data handling, and fund transfers. The mobile app was found to incorporate standard protections while maintaining usability for both retail and professional traders.

“External, independent verification is an essential part of maintaining user trust and ensuring accountability,” MEXC COO Tracy Jin said in a statement.

The audit results come at a time when exchanges globally are facing rising pressure to prove the robustness of their infrastructure, as security standards become a differentiator in both retail and institutional markets.Hacken’s full report is publicly accessible on its website.
