When did "we passed an audit" stop being enough?
At a
@ColliderVC panel in Tel Aviv, Adi Zepkowitz, VP of EMEA Sales at Hypernative, laid out how the security floor has shifted for onchain allocators.
An audit confirms code quality at a point in time. It does not monitor a live protocol, its dependencies, or what an attacker does between deployment and exploit. The new baseline is real-time monitoring across the full stack, automated workflows that do not rely on a human in the loop, and security treated as a 24/7 operational function, not a box checked during onboarding. Look at the top 100 protocols on DeFiLlama, virtually all of them run monitoring. The gap is everyone below that line.
We have recently published The Ultimate Guide to Web3 Security, which breaks down how modern attacks actually unfold, what early warning signals look like in practice, and how leading teams are evolving beyond audits and alerts to protect real value at scale.
