To prevent these hacks from happening, we need an on-chain tool.\n\nYou can think of the Smart Contract Firewall as an additional layer of security for DeFi protocols.\n\nOur Firewall is a set of Solidity Smart Contracts that allow you to:\n\nDefine critical parameters for your protocol (e.g., TVL) and track these parameters over time.\n\nDetect that a transaction (or multiple) is causing the protocol to operate outside its normal activity (e.g., unusual liquidity outflow, indicative of a potential hack happening).\n\nImplement a set of protective measures, including transaction blocking, protocol pausing, fund freezing, or controlled fund withdrawal, before the transaction is committed and funds exit the protocol.\n\nThe Firewall provides a way to detect abnormal changes in your protocol directly on-chain, that could be indicative of a hack.
