Using advanced Know Your Address (KYA) and Know Your Transaction (KYT) capabilities, it provides comprehensive protection for your selected MPC Wallets and Web3 Wallets while your team focuses on business growth. Once installed and configured, the app continuously monitors transactions in real-time, providing intelligent risk detection and automated compliance controls.CipherOwl directly scans transactions, while using Elliptic requires API key configuration before use.
Key features
Intelligent risk detection
Screening automatically analyzes transactions in real-time using advanced risk assessment technology through our integrations with leading compliance solution providers:- CipherOwl: Ready to use for transaction screening immediately after installing Screening.
- Elliptic: Requires API key configuration before use. Contact Cobo Support to obtain API keys.
- With CipherOwl: Transactions are automatically classified into three risk levels (Low, Medium, High) based on CipherOwl’s risk scoring system. For details, see CipherOwl’s Address Risk Score documentation.
- With Elliptic: Risk is presented as a numerical score from 0.0 to 10.0 (in 0.1 increments), with higher scores indicating higher risk levels. For details, see Elliptic’s Risk Score documentation.
When a transaction in your selected monitored wallets is being screened, Cobo transmits the following transaction details to your AML provider for risk assessment:
- With CihperOwl: Asset’s chain, From address (for deposits), To address (for withdrawals)
- With Elliptic: Asset’s chain, Receiving address (for withdrawals), On-chain transaction hash (for deposits)
