Web3 incidents happen fast. When vulnerabilities are found or exploits begin, alerts alone are not enough. You need structure, ownership, and execution that spans monitoring, engineering, governance, and communications.
This guide provides a practical framework to help your organization:
Security lifecycle: Audits, bug bounties, detection, response
Real-world case patterns and where coordination breaks
Step-by-step response layers across Signal, Surface, Structure, Stress, and Shield
Practical checklists for leaders across technical and non-technical teams
Guidance from Cantina's Incident Response experts and Hypernative's detection teams
This guide is built for:
Cantina delivers incident response, MDR, and protocol security infrastructure for high-value and institutional teams across Web3.
Hypernative powers real-time monitoring and automated exploit detection across chains, with proven threat prevention at production scale.
Together, we help protocols detect earlier and respond faster, before incidents spiral.
If your organization is preparing for due diligence, integration, or regulated engagement, we can help apply this framework to your architecture and operations. Cantina scopes institutional reviews that cover both code and resilience.
