New Market Trading Completes Independent Security Audit of Non-Custodial Account Infrastructure

The audit, conducted by Consensys Diligence, adds independent verification to an account model where clients hold the keys to their own assets

New Market Trading, a non-custodial onchain wealth management firm, has completed an independent security audit of its client account infrastructure, conducted by Consensys Diligence, one of the industry’s most established blockchain security auditing firms. The audit covered the non-custodial architecture behind every NMT client account, built on Safe’s implementation of the ERC-4337 standard, infrastructure that already secures more than $100 billion in crypto assets industry-wide.

Built On Client Control

Every New Market Trading account is a Safe smart account that the client opens, owns, and controls directly. NMT is granted permission to execute investment strategies inside that account. It cannot withdraw funds or redirect them anywhere else.

That structure is the foundation of the company’s approach to security.

“New Market Trading is the first of its kind,” said Frank Hepworth, founder and CEO of New Market Trading. “We use non-custodial technology to connect investors to the onchain economy in a way legacy institutions cannot. Our clients always maintain full control of their own funds, while still benefiting from the professional management and investment strategies of our team.”

Independently Verified

NMT sought independent, third-party verification of that structure. Consensys Diligence, active in blockchain security auditing since 2017, reviewed the non-custodial account infrastructure that underlies every NMT client account.

The infrastructure itself carries its own track record. Accounts on the platform run on Safe’s implementation of the ERC-4337 standard, technology used industry-wide to secure more than $100 billion in crypto assets. NMT built its account model on that established, widely used infrastructure.

A Continuous Commitment

New Market Trading said the audit is one part of a broader, ongoing security posture. The company also uses AI-driven monitoring on client accounts, designed to catch the kind of mistakes that typically cause self-custody losses, like an unfamiliar signature request, a suspicious transaction, or an approval that doesn’t match a client’s normal activity.

“AI monitoring flags and blocks suspicious transactions before they execute,” Hepworth said. “That takes most self-custody mistakes off the table. They can advise you. They can’t stop you.”

NMT also named Ajdin Kahrović as Chief Technology Officer in August 2026, the same day the company opened publicly to new clients, placing the architect of the platform’s security in that role from day one. 

Kahrović previously built defi.app from launch to more than $40 billion in cumulative trading volume, and now leads all of NMT’s engineering, sets the technical roadmap, and owns the security and reliability of the platform as it scales. Hepworth has said the hire was about giving the company’s technology, and its security, a single owner from the outset.

The company said it will continue to invest in third-party verification and account-level safeguards as its client base grows.

About New Market Trading

New Market Trading is the first wealth management firm to move the investment account itself onto the blockchain. NMT clients own their account via ERC-4337 smart account technology, delegate trading management to the NMT team, who can execute strategies but never withdraw or redirect funds, and gain immediate access to 10,000+ onchain assets, yield products, and active strategies that no legacy provider can offer.

Why More Central Florida Homeowners Are Prioritizing Trust When Choosing Roofing Contractors

Longwood, FloridaLocal roofing experts share insights into the qualities that help homeowners make confident roofing decisions, from proven workmanship and customer satisfaction to communication, accountability, and long-term protection.

Local roofing experts share insights into the qualities that help homeowners make confident roofing decisions, from proven workmanship and customer satisfaction to communication, accountability, and long-term protection.

John Keller Roofing Highlights the Growing Importance of Reputation, Communication, and Local Expertise for Homeowners Across Central Florida

As homeowners continue to invest in protecting and improving their properties, many are placing a greater emphasis on trust, communication, and local expertise when selecting a roofing contractor. John Keller Roofing is encouraging homeowners throughout Longwood, Orlando, and Central Florida to look beyond price alone and focus on the qualities that contribute to long-term roofing success.

A roof is one of the most important components of any home. While roofing materials and installation methods are important, homeowners are increasingly looking for contractors who communicate clearly, understand local conditions, and have built a strong reputation within the communities they serve.

“Homeowners deserve to feel confident about who they hire,” said John Keller of John Keller Roofing. “Choosing a roofing contractor is about more than repairing or replacing a roof. It’s about working with a company that understands your concerns, communicates throughout the process, and stands behind the work being performed.”

Florida homeowners face unique roofing challenges throughout the year. Heat, humidity, strong winds, heavy rain, and seasonal storm activity can place significant stress on roofing systems. These local conditions make experience and regional expertise especially important when evaluating roofing contractors.

For many homeowners, customer reviews and testimonials have become a key part of the decision-making process. Positive customer experiences provide valuable insight into a company’s professionalism, reliability, communication, and workmanship. Homeowners are increasingly using reviews to determine whether a contractor has a proven history of serving customers successfully.

In response to these trends, John Keller Roofing recently launched a new online homeowner resource focused on helping homeowners understand why trust, communication, reputation, and craftsmanship matter when selecting a roofing contractor. The resource provides information designed to help homeowners make informed decisions when evaluating roofing companies.

The company believes that homeowners should feel comfortable asking questions, comparing options, reviewing customer experiences, and understanding the roofing process before moving forward with a project.

“Trust is earned through consistency and customer service,” Keller added. “Our goal has always been to provide homeowners with quality roofing solutions while building relationships based on honesty, transparency, and professionalism.”

John Keller Roofing serves homeowners throughout Longwood, Orlando, and surrounding Central Florida communities with roofing services that include roof repair, roof replacement, metal roofing, storm-related roofing services, and new construction roofing.

As roofing decisions continue to become more important for homeowners, John Keller Roofing encourages property owners to evaluate contractors based on reputation, communication, local expertise, and overall customer experience in addition to pricing considerations.

For additional information about John Keller Roofing and the company’s homeowner resources, visit the company website or contact the team directly.

DigiArmorX Announces Digital-Safety and Cybersecurity Education Initiative for Students in Grades 3–12

Rochester, MIFounder Nidhi Srivastava is applying nearly two decades of cybersecurity and technology-risk experience to help schools, educators, parents and students build practical digital-safety skills.

Founder Nidhi Srivastava is applying nearly two decades of cybersecurity and technology-risk experience to help schools, educators, parents and students build practical digital-safety skills.

DigiArmorX, a digital-safety and cybersecurity education startup founded by cybersecurity and technology-risk professional Nidhi Srivastava, announces the continued development of its education initiative for students in Grades 3–12. The initiative is designed to help schools, educators, parents and students address evolving online risks through repeated, practical and age-appropriate cybersecurity education.

For nearly two decades, Srivastava’s career has centered on one question: How do you identify risk before it becomes an incident?

A cybersecurity and technology-risk professional, Srivastava has worked across various industries, with experience spanning cybersecurity architecture, governance, risk, compliance and technology programs.

Today, she is applying that enterprise-risk mindset to a different population: children.

DigiArmorX is built around a simple premise: In a world where children grow up online, cybersecurity is no longer merely a technical skill. It is a life skill.

DigiArmorX: www.digiarmorx.ai

The idea became personal after her son encountered an online scam and cyberbullying in elementary school. The experience made Srivastava question whether children are being adequately prepared for risks that follow them from classrooms to gaming platforms, group chats, social media and AI-powered environments.

Schools may teach digital citizenship. Parents may install monitoring tools. But technology cannot make every decision for a child.

That gap became the foundation for DigiArmorX.

Beyond One-Time Cybersecurity Awareness

Srivastava believes digital safety cannot be effectively taught through an annual presentation, worksheet or list of online dos and don’ts.

Children repeatedly encounter changing risks, including scams, phishing, cyberbullying, privacy threats, social engineering, deepfakes and AI-generated content.

DigiArmorX is therefore built around three principles: learning should be adaptive, repeated and risk-based.

The platform combines interactive stories, adaptive quizzes, games, real-world decision-making scenarios and hands-on Cyber Labs, with experiences tailored for different grade levels from Grades 3–12. Students build mastery through practice, while parents and educators gain visibility into progress, risk signals and areas requiring additional reinforcement.

The goal is not to turn children, parents, teachers or schools into cybersecurity experts. It is to build judgment.

“Cyber risk follows the child. Cyber resilience should too,” Srivastava says.

Supporting Schools, Educators and Families

The DigiArmorX approach is intended to complement the role of schools and educators while giving families additional resources for addressing digital-safety challenges.

Children encounter online environments both inside and outside the classroom. As a result, Srivastava believes cybersecurity education should extend beyond a single school presentation or isolated lesson and become part of the repeated learning experience surrounding a child.

For schools and educators, the platform is designed to provide age-appropriate experiences across Grades 3–12. For parents, the approach provides additional visibility into areas where children may require reinforcement.

The objective is to help children develop decision-making skills they can apply when they encounter unfamiliar online situations.

Books, Research, Speaking and Cyber Education

Srivastava has taken that mission beyond software.

She is an award-winning author of the BrightShield Digital Defenders cybersecurity books for young readers and Growing Safe Digital Minds, a practical resource for parents and educators. Her books use relatable situations to make complex online risks understandable and actionable for families and are available for purchase on Amazon.

She also creates accessible cybersecurity education for children through her YouTube channel, @digiarmorxcyberkids, translating topics such as scams, passwords, privacy, cyberbullying, AI and online safety into content younger audiences can understand.

Her voice is increasingly part of broader conversations about children and technology. Srivastava has appeared on podcasts including Mom and Me: Positive Talk and The Weird Canadian, discussing cybersecurity, parenting, AI safety, digital resilience and the realities children face online.

She has also started her own podcast conversations around “The Digital Playground Has No Fence,” exploring cyberbullying, AI and deepfakes, online judgment, responsible technology use and why parents and teachers should not be expected to become cybersecurity experts.

Her work also extends into cybersecurity research, education advocacy and public speaking. Srivastava has authored and contributed to various research papers in the cybersecurity field, addressing areas including AI-enabled cybersecurity, automation, biometric security and emerging digital risks.

She has spoken at TEDx, IEEE conferences and World Berlin conferences, among other professional and educational forums, where she has advocated for the importance of introducing cybersecurity and digital-safety education at an early age. Her work emphasizes preparing children with practical awareness, judgment and resilience before they encounter increasingly complex online threats.

Srivastava has also participated in cybersecurity, technology and K–12 education events and outreach initiatives focused on making cybersecurity concepts more accessible to students, families and educators.

DigiArmorX has been developed within Oakland University’s OU INC entrepreneurial ecosystem and has secured intellectual-property protection around its technology.

Building Judgment Before Something Goes Wrong

DigiArmorX is now moving through early-stage validation with educators, families and education organizations for Grades 3–12.

For Srivastava, the larger idea goes beyond one company.

A security tool may block a malicious website. It cannot always tell a child whether to trust a stranger, recognize manipulation, question a convincing deepfake or know how to respond to cyberbullying.

Those decisions require skills, and skills develop through repeated practice.

“The digital playground has no fence,” Srivastava says.

Her approach is centered on helping children learn how to navigate that environment before they are expected to navigate it alone.

About DigiArmorX

Founded by cybersecurity professional, TEDx speaker, author, and mom Nidhi Srivastava, the company helps children build practical skills to navigate today’s digital and AI-driven world safely. Through age-appropriate learning, adaptive assessments, interactive games, and cyber labs, DigiArmorX addresses real-world risks including scams, cyberbullying, privacy, deepfakes, and responsible AI use.
