Exploit mitigation refers to the strategies and techniques implemented to reduce the likelihood and impact of successful security exploits against software, systems, or networks. In the context of digital assets and blockchain, this involves rigorous code audits, bug bounties, multi-signature wallets, and timely security patches. The objective is to identify and address vulnerabilities before they can be leveraged by malicious actors. Effective mitigation is essential for protecting digital funds and network integrity.
