[ENG] STEEM Security - receive STEEM alert messages via Discord

in Steem Dev2 months ago

Hello, this is @joviansummer(witness: @jswit). I'd like to introduce my new experimental project, "STEEM Security." I started this dev project for my personal use, but decided to overhaul the code to make it available to all steemians. This is a Discord bot which will send STEEM security alert to you.

Currently, the bot will send an alert message if the following operations happen:

  • sending STEEM/SBD to another account
  • changing SP delegation
  • account update

Here is how you set up the Discord bot:

  1. Login to Discord and join my STEEM_SECURITY server: https://discord.gg/pawu8YTAvm

  2. If you check the member list, you will see "STEEM_SECURITY" bot account. Right-click the bot account and select "Message" to open a DM(direct message) channel with it.

  1. On DM channel, register your steem account by sending "/reg" command. For example, send "/reg joviansummer" if you want to register @joviansummer. You can register up to 3 STEEM accounts.

  1. If you want to check your registration status, send "/stat".

  1. To remove your steem account, send "/unreg" command. For example, send "/unreg joviansummer" to remove @joviansummer.

If you receive an alert message about something you didn't do, then it means someone else did it. Alert message contains the type of operation and a link to corresponding block number. If you click the block number, you check the block via @steemchiller's SteemWorld(https://steemworld.org) block explorer.

On "heart-beat" channel of STEEM_SECURITY server, you can see hourly heart-beat message which will indicate the bot is online.

This service scans blocks from my own witness node(@jswit), so it won't impose any load on any other nodes. Note that this project is in testing phase now, which means that for some time there could be some bugs, service outages, code revisions, and so on. Hopefully it will stabilize soon.

I hope this Discord bot will help you secure your STEEM account. If you like it, please consider voting @jswit as witness. Thank you for reading, and have a wonderful day!
