In the 21st century cybersecurity has become one of the most pressing issues. Hacker attacks, data breaches and server outages in major companies have become commonplace headlines. Think back to Yahoo’s 2013 breach, where hackers stole data from 3 billion accounts. Incidents like this remind us how vulnerable our digital information really is.
But what if there was a different model of protection? What if, instead of one centralized storage, data was distributed across thousands of devices, like bricks in a wall that can’t be broken with a single strike? This is where decentralization steps in.
Smartphones as guardians of security
You might think your phone is just a place for photos, apps and videos. But even 1 GB of free space on your device can play a crucial role in global security.
DexPoint offers an innovative solution: turning millions of smartphones around the world into a decentralized network. This means data is distributed across devices, significantly reducing the risk of major breaches and attacks. In return for the space you provide, you receive DEXNET tokens — digital assets that can be used within the ecosystem or exchanged on various platforms.
Lessons from cyberattacks of the past
To understand the importance of decentralization, let’s look at some examples where access to data fell into the wrong hands:
Target Attack (2013). Data from over 40 million credit cards was leaked.
WannaCry (2017). A global ransomware attack paralyzed companies and institutions in 150 countries.
Marriott Breach (2018). Personal data of 500 million hotel guests was compromised.
What these cases have in common is centralized data storage, which makes an easy target for hackers.
Why decentralization matters
Centralized servers are like massive safes that attract the attention of hackers. In a decentralized network data is spread across multiple nodes. Even if one node is compromised, the rest of the network remains secure.
With DexPoint you can contribute to this secure system simply by sharing your phone’s free space.
The power of numbers
DexPoint users from over 100 countries have collectively contributed 38 TB of free storage space. To put that into perspective:
That amount could store data from 1,000 medium-sized servers.
38 TB could support 50 global applications with millions of users.
It’s enough to safeguard real-time data for thousands of companies.
Each gigabyte contributes to a safer network, with every user playing a vital role.
How DexPoint works
The app is simple to use. All you need to do is:
Download DexPoint on your device (Android or iOS).
Allocate a small portion of your free space (e.g., 4 GB).
Watch as your device becomes part of a global network while receiving DEXNET tokens.
DexPoint runs in the background, ensuring your phone’s performance and battery life are unaffected.
Why act now?
The number of cyberattacks and data breaches increases every year. In 2022 a cyberattack occurred every 39 seconds worldwide, meaning no one is entirely safe from threats.
DexPoint provides an opportunity to contribute to a new model of security based on collaboration.
DexPoint and you: building the future together
By installing DexPoint you join a community that believes in the power of technology to create a better world. Together we can build a decentralized infrastructure where data is not only secure but also managed by users themselves.
Join DexPoint today and make sure every gigabyte of your free space works toward a safer digital world.
