Privacy Explorer is an open & free data platform within decentralised privacy: https://explorer.web3privacy.info. It features 820 projects promising privacy.
80% of those projects never passed a single security audit. Moreover, one that attest their both onchain & offchain privacy practices (from data collection to encryption methods). This is a high-risk for sensitive audience from activists in need of high-security to general public (reputational risks for crypto).
As a Web3Privacy now collective we are building solution shaping whole security landscape in privacy domain:
-
open data available via github (API calls)
-
scoring model attesting risk factors using infra or apps (pie chart mvp https://explorer.web3privacy.info/project/railgun)
-
agentic workflow facilitating data automation (reduce manual labour, sync latest data): https://research-agents-dashboard.onrender.com
-
visual dashboard highlighting the state of web3 privacy from active/dead githubs to team transparency https://research-agents-dashboard.onrender.com
-
privacy features audit https://hackmd.io/2IRrRsLcQyKo1XOwAFABBA
What we are fundraising for
-
Data automation: making agentic workflow decrease manual labour on search & data aggregation + ship it faster than humans across 800 projects
-
Upgrade scoring system: once we will have up to date & accurate data by agents - we can better articulate which projects have “dead” github, non-transparent team, too much dependencies etc.
-
Mainstream privacy/security dashboard: visual instrument all privacy market & beyond can use to improve existing security practices from increasing % of audits to proof necessity behind specific form of encryption (here dashboard will be used by variety of actors within organisations, foundations, key events)
-
Test Privacy features audit: helps to create new form of privacy features attestation beyond “penetrating testing” or “smart contract audit”, because privacy comes within broader data aggregation from RPC calls to personal data collection. Here test means work closely with 5 teams, generate demo reports, ship back to the community and publish them at research forums - closer to future standards.
Key principles behind Privacy Agentic Dashboard
-
public goods first: free instrument as in freedom
-
fit to diverse audiences: open data availability via github + visual dashboard for non-technical people
-
security friendly: we actively work with security researchers and privacy professionals to understand loopholes in existing security practices within privacy domain
-
credibility: for years we advocate for open data around privacy market (not gated by platforms, bottom-up attesting privacy promises)
