OpSec

Operational security for teams, keys, releases, and response.

Smart contract security depends on the humans, infrastructure, and processes around the code. Guardian helps teams harden the operational paths adversaries actually target.

Reduce operational attack surface.

We assess how sensitive actions happen in practice: who can execute them, what can go wrong, and how the team would detect and contain compromise.

  • Key management Multisig structure, signer hygiene, custody assumptions, transaction simulation, and access recovery.
  • Release process Deployments, upgrades, verification, environment separation, and change-control procedures.
  • Infrastructure Admin panels, CI/CD, RPC dependencies, monitoring systems, bots, and privileged backend services.
  • Incident readiness Runbooks, escalation channels, emergency roles, and rehearsal of containment decisions.

Typical scope

Founders & signers

Personal security, signer workflows, social recovery, and approval discipline.

Deployment paths

How contracts, configs, and upgrades move from branch to chain.

Emergency response

Pausing, communication, multisig coordination, and forensic preservation.
