# Identity Protection (AntiVamp)

How Novamp protects each token's normalized Name + Ticker using AntiVamp — and where launchpads can integrate AntiVamp directly.

Novamp protects every token's identity — its normalized `Name + Ticker` — across chains and launchpads using **AntiVamp**, a separate identity-protection protocol. Inside Novamp this is automatic; you don't wire up anything to benefit from it.

> **Novamp is a customer of AntiVamp. Protection is built in — no integration required to use Novamp.**

{% hint style="info" %}
AntiVamp is its own protocol with its own network, normalization spec, partner API, and SDK. Novamp consumes it. For protocol depth, integration, and the full endpoint reference, go to the AntiVamp docs — this page only explains how it shows up in Novamp.
{% endhint %}

## What you get in Novamp — automatically

* **Reservations.** When you reserve a `Name + Ticker`, Novamp records the hold through AntiVamp so nobody can front-run your launch. See [Reserve a Name + Ticker](/identity-protection/reserving-a-name-and-ticker.md).
* **Identity checks.** As you type a name and ticker in the app, Novamp checks availability against AntiVamp's normalized, confusables-aware key — homoglyphs, symbols, casing, and hidden characters all fold to the same identity. See the [Identity Checker](/identity-protection/identity-checker.md).
* **The protected badge.** Reserved and locked identities surface a "Protected by AntiVamp" badge across the app, backed by on-chain state.
* **Copycat-proof launches.** Launches are gated on an AntiVamp decision, so a look-alike can't ride your identity on Novamp or any other integrated launchpad.

None of this requires an API key or extra setup when you use Novamp — it's part of the product.

## Are you a launchpad?

If you operate your **own** launchpad and want the same cross-launchpad identity protection, you integrate AntiVamp directly — it is not something Novamp resells or proxies. AntiVamp issues partner API keys and documents the validate → verify → report lifecycle, the SDK, and webhooks.

{% hint style="success" %}
Read the AntiVamp docs and API reference to integrate directly:

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.novamp.io/developers/identity-protection.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
