Learn the multi-layered security approach needed to protect bridges. Explore best practices and assess bridge security with our interactive tools.

πŸ” Defense-in-Depth Layers

Explore five critical security layers. No single layer can prevent all attacksβ€”bridges need comprehensive protection.

πŸ›‘οΈ

Validator Security

Critical Priority
πŸ‘₯
Large Validator Set
15+ independent validators across different entities
🌍

Hardware Security
Keys stored in HSMs or secure enclaves
πŸ”„
Rotation Policy
Regular validator rotation and key management
⭐
Reputation Requirements
