Sign InThe Solana Foundation, in partnership with Asymmetric Research, has launched the STRIDE security framework to protect DeFi protocols following the Drift Protocol exploit. The program evaluates protocols across eight security categories, offering a tiered benefits system based on the Total Value Locked (TVL) within participating platforms. In a significant technical update, Solana has successfully mitigated simple sandwich attack vulnerabilities to further enhance network-level security. Additionally, Jito is actively developing more efficient transaction execution models and optimized block space allocation to improve network performance. These advancements complement Drift Protocol’s ongoing recovery plan and the deployment of protocol-level protections for affected users. Meanwhile, Bitcoin (BTC) reclaimed the $70,000 level as broader markets digested these security enhancements alongside macro headlines. Ultimately, STRIDE and these infrastructure updates aim to institutionalize security standards to ensure the long-term stability of the SOL ecosystem.
