2 min

Solana Foundation launched STRIDE and SIRN to harden DeFi security on Solana. Tiered support adds 24/7 monitoring and formal verification for high‑TVL protocols. Source.

Asymmetric Research will run independent, multi‑pillar reviews that go beyond static audits. Scope covers opsec, access controls, multisigs, governance, contract integrity, key management, and economic design. Results will be public. Foundation blog.

“Solana was built for security.” The Foundation highlighted new active monitoring, formal verification for top protocols, and a crisis response network. Announcement tweet.

Key mechanics
- STRIDE v0.1 is live and open to all Solana DeFi protocols. Findings will be published in a public repository. Details
- Protocols that pass and hold over $10M TVL get Foundation‑funded 24/7 active threat monitoring and ongoing opsec support. Details
- Protocols exceeding $100M TVL gain access to formal verification tooling. Details
- The Solana Incident Response Network (SIRN) launches as a real‑time exploit analysis and containment coalition. Founding members: Asymmetric Research, OtterSec, Neodyme, Squads, Zeroshadow. Triage prioritizes TVL and impact. Details
- STRIDE and SIRN build on existing no‑cost tools: Range Security risk alerts, Sec3 X‑Ray static analysis, and Auditware Radar. Details

The Foundation framed this as “tripling down on security” with hands‑on opsec reviews, public reports, a 24/7 monitoring center, crisis response, and formal verification for top protocols. Context.

Public scorecards, real‑time monitoring, and triaged incident response set a common safety baseline for Solana DeFi. Foundation blog.
