CAEX Vietnam platform Passes High-Tier Security Audit
Passing High-Tier Security Audit: CAEX Completes Level 4 Security Evaluation to Accelerate Vietnam License Bid
As Vietnam’s digital asset pilot program enters the crucial license evaluation stage, CAEX Platform (Vietnam Prosperity Crypto Asset Exchange Joint Stock Company), a leading local contender, has achieved another major milestone. CAEX officially announced the successful completion of the Level 4 Information System Safety Rating evaluation, marking a decisive step forward in its information security and compliant technical architecture.
1. Technical Compliance Milestone: Meeting Resolution No. 05 Standards
Under the regulatory framework enacted by the Vietnamese government for the digital asset pilot (Resolution No. 05), information system safety ratings serve as a core assessment metric for trading institutions seeking official operational permits.
-
High-Specification Security Certification: Achieving Level 4 security status demonstrates that CAEX’s systems have met rigorous standards in cyber attack prevention, user data privacy protection, system fault redundancy, and financial-grade disaster recovery.
-
Infrastructure Synergies: The implementation of this security architecture is bolstered by CAEX’s strategic technical collaboration with HashKey, integrating global leading trading security protocols with localized operational requirements in Vietnam to build international-standard Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and risk control systems.
2. Licensing Race Intensifies: Driven by Traditional Finance and Global Capital
Under the five-year pilot plan, the Vietnamese government expects to grant 5 crypto asset exchange licenses. Within this competitive landscape, CAEX demonstrates clear strategic advantages:
| Dimension | Latest Progress & Layout |
| Capital Fulfillment | Following its earlier capital expansion, CAEX secured joint investments from OKX Ventures and HashKey Capital, successfully surpassing the stringent VND 10,000 billion (approx. USD 380 million) registered capital threshold. |
| Ecosystem Support | As a strategic member of the VPBank financial ecosystem (co-founded by VPBankS and LynkiD), CAEX holds a natural compliance moat in local currency (VND) fiat gateways and bank-grade asset custody. |
| Launch Preparation | With the completion of the security rating evaluation, CAEX’s roadmap shifts toward final regulatory reviews and system readiness, aiming to be among the first licensed platforms to launch compliant operations. |
3. Market Observation & Security Warnings
Despite CAEX’s steady compliance achievements, industry experts advise investors to remain attentive to key safety considerations:
Guard Against Phishing Scams: Following major compliance announcements by CAEX, scammers frequently exploit headlines like “CAEX License Approval” or “Internal Beta Testing” to set up fake websites and Telegram scam groups. Investors must never share verification codes or participate in unverified fund deposits.
Monitor Official License Announcements: Prior to the official release of the pilot license roster by regulatory bodies, users participating in live trading must closely monitor notices from the Ministry of Finance and the State Bank of Vietnam to ensure legal and compliant asset handling.
From overcoming the USD 380 million capital hurdle to passing the Level 4 Information System Security Evaluation, CAEX Vietnam continues to fortify its compliance moat. Should it successfully secure a pilot license, CAEX is poised to establish a new benchmark for regulated digital asset trading in Vietnam.（Vietnam Crypto Exchange）
