Stacy and the other panelists outlined ways to better prevent against the increasing number of cyber attacks to exchanges, including educating users on common security protocols, utilizing key managers to protect and remember digital signatures, implementing strict access controls, and deploying security protocols in coordination with other exchanges to minimize the likelihood stolen funds will make their way into other exchanges.
