## Lag: Coverage lag is a specified time period that can be set globally or on a per-cover basis to delay the start of coverage. The coverage of a policy begins at the EOD timestamp of the policy purchase date plus the coverage lag. This allows us to defend against time-based opportunistic attacks, which occur when an attacker purchases coverage after an incident has occurred but before the incident has been reported. ## Blacklist: Blacklisted accounts are unable to claim their cxTokens. Cover managers can use the blacklist feature to prohibit an account from claiming their cover. This usually happens when we suspect a policyholder of being the attacker. After performing KYC, we may be able to lift the blacklist.
