Trail of Bits Clears Worldcoin's Identification Protocol of Vulnerabilities, Amid Rising Security Concerns

Trail of Bits conducted an independent assessment of Worldcoin's decentralized identification protocol. This evaluation revealed that on August 14, 2023, the Trail of Bits professionals initiated an examination of the Worldcoin's software and the Orb device, which is designed to perform iris scans of users. Over a six-week period, these experts meticulously analyzed the code to identify any potential security weaknesses. This included the simulation of various cyber-attack scenarios to assess if user data could be compromised. The findings were reassuring, indicating that the code of the device is free from vulnerabilities that could be exploited.



Furthermore, the audit highlighted that it would be challenging for potential cybercriminals to intercept iris data from the Orb's network traffic. Such an attempt would require the hacker
