Platform Security Architecture
Online betting platforms rely on layered security at both the infrastructure and the account level. This page summarises the Melbet App security framework across four core layers: network traffic encryption, independent auditing of game fairness, account protection tools and the player fund segregation policy.
Layer 1: Network Traffic Encryption
All communication between the Melbet App and the operator's servers is encrypted over TLS 1.3. The protocol was standardised by the IETF in 2018; it cuts the handshake down to 1-RTT and fully retires the weak cipher suites still present in TLS 1.2. The certificate chain is ECDSA based and uses short-lived certificates rotated every seven days. Pinned certificate validation is embedded in the app itself, so man-in-the-middle attacks are stopped on the device.
| Protocol | TLS 1.3 (RFC 8446) |
|---|---|
| Cipher suite | TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 |
| Certificate | ECDSA P-256 · 7-day rotation |
| HSTS | max-age 31536000 · preload active |
| Pinned cert | In-app · MITM prevention |
Layer 2: Independent Game Fairness
The mathematical fairness of game outcomes is guaranteed by two independent mechanisms. For slots and live dealer games, the RNG (random number generator) is certified by iTech Labs and re-audited every six months. Crash games (Aviator in particular) additionally use a Provably Fair system: each round pairs a server seed with a client seed, the result hash is published before the round starts, and the outcome can be verified mathematically afterwards.
Layer 3: Account Protection Tools
Activated via SMS or any TOTP-compatible app (Google Authenticator, Authy). Even a stolen password cannot open a session without the second factor.
Face recognition, Touch ID or a fingerprint replaces the password. Biometric data never leaves the device's Secure Enclave.
Every withdrawal request demands an extra four-digit PIN. All supported payment channels are compiled separately. Even a hijacked account cannot move funds out.
Active sessions are listed with device, IP and location details. Any session you do not recognise can be terminated with one tap.
Layer 4: Player Fund Segregation
The regulatory conditions of the Curaçao licence require player funds to be held in an account separate from the operator's working capital. This arrangement is known as a segregated account and is a common compliance standard across the industry. Should the operator run into financial difficulty, player balances are treated as priority claims — meaning your balance is protected even in an operator insolvency scenario.
The SHA-256 hash of the downloaded .apk file can be compared against the operator's published version history page. A hash mismatch means the package is not genuine or has been tampered with; in that case, do not install it.
