Recently, the School of Business Administration of Hong Kong Baptist University announced that Ms. Cheung Yung Yung Mandy, an outstanding student of the Master of Finance (FinTech and Financial Analytics) program, won the SlowMist Cybersecurity Award in the 2023-24 academic year. This award is in recognition of Mandy's outstanding performance in the "FIN7900 Cybersecurity, Privacy and RegTech" course. Her work not only sets a benchmark for academic excellence, but also highlights the importance of ensuring the security of financial technology in today's digital age.
Since the 2020-21 academic year, SlowMist has started to offer the "SlowMist Cybersecurity Award" to winners of the Hong Kong Baptist University Finance Course, which includes a cash prize of US$4,000. SlowMist offers this award to encourage outstanding students who work hard for the development of cybersecurity. We hope that more people will realize the importance of cybersecurity in today's digital environment. SlowMist has been committed to bringing a sense of security to the blockchain ecosystem, whether it is providing free case assessment assistance services to the blockchain community, outputting security knowledge in the form of AMA or articles, or continuing to follow up on hackers threatening the blockchain industry, because we are well aware that cybersecurity is related to personal privacy/property security, and even to the trust and sustainable development of the industry. Therefore, SlowMist continues to use its capabilities and experience in the front line of blockchain security for many years to promote the healthy development of the blockchain industry.
In the future, SlowMist will always practice the values of "keeping to the right path and creating value", and actively promote the development and growth of the blockchain industry in all aspects and dimensions to the best of its ability.
