Attack Surface Reduction is a security strategy aimed at minimizing the number of potential points where an unauthorized actor could attempt to compromise a system. This involves systematically limiting the accessible features, code, and network services of a blockchain protocol or decentralized application. The objective is to decrease the likelihood of successful exploits.
Context
In the realm of blockchain technology, attack surface reduction is a continuous process, particularly important for smart contract development and protocol upgrades. Security audits and formal verification methods are frequently employed to identify and eliminate unnecessary exposure. This ongoing effort is central to enhancing the overall security posture of digital asset systems.
