DeFi protocol security involves the measures implemented to protect decentralized finance applications from attacks and vulnerabilities. This encompasses smart contract audits, robust code practices, and ongoing monitoring to safeguard user funds and maintain operational integrity. Effective security protocols are essential for preventing exploits and preserving trust in decentralized systems.
Context

A key discussion point involves balancing decentralization with centralized security oversight, such as through independent auditing firms. Future progress will likely involve formal verification methods and bug bounty programs to strengthen defenses against potential exploits.
