Blockchain Security Training

Benefit from Neodyme's extensive blockchain expertise and get development teams trained by industry leaders. These specialized training programs cover smart contract security, blockchain architecture, and Web3-specific attack vectors and defense strategies.

Service Overview

Blockchain and Web3 technologies introduce unique security challenges that traditional security training doesn't address. Neodyme's blockchain security training leverages the team's extensive experience auditing major blockchain protocols and smart contracts, protecting over $50 billion in TVL, and reporting more than 100 core blockchain vulnerabilities. Training is delivered by security researchers who have been actively working in blockchain security since 2020.

Training Topics

Smart Contract Security

Comprehensive coverage of smart contract vulnerabilities and secure development practices including:

Solana Smart Contract Security: Security considerations for Rust and Anchor-based Solana programs, common vulnerability patterns in Solana smart contracts (account validation, PDA derivation, arithmetic operations), program-derived address (PDA) security, cross-program invocation security, and Solana-specific attack vectors.

Ethereum/EVM Smart Contract Security: Solidity security best practices and common pitfalls, reentrancy and related vulnerabilities, integer arithmetic issues and safe math, access control patterns, front-running and MEV considerations, and gas optimization vs. security trade-offs.

Move Smart Contract Security: Security properties of the Move programming language, resource-oriented programming model, formal verification in Move, and secure patterns for Aptos and Sui development.

Core Blockchain Security

Fundamental blockchain security concepts including consensus mechanism security and attack scenarios, cryptographic primitives in blockchain systems, validator security and slashing conditions, network-layer attacks and mitigations, and economic security and mechanism design.

Web3 Development Security

Security for Web3 application developers including wallet integration security, signing transaction security (avoiding blind signing), front-end security in Web3 applications, oracle security and manipulation, cross-chain bridge security, and DeFi-specific security patterns.

Hands-On Learning

Blockchain training includes extensive practical exercises with vulnerable smart contract challenges, real-world audit scenarios based on historical vulnerabilities, live coding of secure patterns, and Capture-the-Flag style challenges. Students gain practical experience finding and exploiting common vulnerability patterns, then learn how to prevent them through secure development practices.

Who Should Attend

Smart contract developers building on Solana, Ethereum, or other platforms; blockchain protocol developers working on core infrastructure; security teams auditing blockchain projects; architects designing decentralized applications; and project teams preparing for security audits.

The Neodyme Difference

Neodyme's blockchain security training comes from real-world experience finding critical vulnerabilities in production systems. The team has been deeply involved in the Solana ecosystem since its early days and has audited diverse blockchain projects from DeFi protocols to NFT platforms.
