Security Operations for Web3 Products
A passed audit is a snapshot. Enterprise resilience needs continuous assurance: runtime monitoring, deterministic controls, and incident discipline.
1) Threat model by business flow
Model failure and abuse scenarios around user onboarding, contract interaction, treasury movement, and admin actions. Prioritize controls by business impact, not only technical severity.
2) Control architecture
Use policy-based wallet governance, privileged action approvals, transaction simulation gates, and real-time anomaly detection tied to runbook automation.
3) Incident response model
- Severity matrix with clear ownership and recovery-time targets.
- Playbooks for exploit attempt, key compromise, oracle drift, and bridge disruption.
- Immutable timelines for forensic reconstruction and legal response.
4) Audit and compliance evidence
Generate continuous control evidence: policy diffs, approval artifacts, detection events, incident metrics, and remediation timelines.
5) Maturity roadmap
Progress from baseline hardening to continuous control validation and executive risk reporting.
