Real-Time Security Monitoring for Bridges & Cross-Chain Protocols
Stop validator compromises, cross-chain MEV attacks, and liquidity drains before they exploit billions locked in bridge contracts, with Guardrail’s real-time, continuous security monitoring for bridges and cross-chain protocols.

Trusted by leading Web3 projects
Stop cross-chain exploits in one block
detect validator compromises and unauthorized bridge activity before assets are drained.

Prevent MEV and arbitrage abuse
identify sandwich trades and front-running patterns that exploit users mid-transfer.

Ensure oracle feed integrity
cross-reference price data sources to prevent manipulation that triggers incorrect token ratios.

Audits Are Just the Beginning
Over 90% of hacks happen in audited protocols after deployment.
Static audits catch code bugs pre-launch, but can't defend against the live threats that emerge in production. Guardrail provides the continuous monitoring that protects your protocol 24/7 where real attacks happen.

Why monitoring?
Cross-chain bridges secure billions in locked assets but remain one of the most targeted areas in Web3. Validator compromises, contract flaws, and MEV attacks have led to some of the largest exploits in crypto history.
Real-time threat monitoring is now a baseline requirement for bridges and cross-chain protocols
Threat
Why it matters
Guardrail real-time monitoring
Validator Key Compromise & Multisig Attacks
Single point of failure enabling attackers to authorize fraudulent withdrawals and drain entire bridge reserves.
Multisig monitoring & unauthorized signature detection
Smart Contract Exploits & Logic Flaws
Code vulnerabilities allow unlimited minting of wrapped tokens and bypass security validations.
Mint/burn limit enforcement & logic exploit detection
Cross-Chain MEV & Sandwich Attacks
Bots exploit price differences and transaction ordering across chains, extracting value from user transfers.
Cross-chain MEV detection & sandwich preventionn
Oracle Manipulation & Price Feed Attacks
False price data triggers incorrect token minting ratios, enabling arbitrage exploitation.
Multi-feed oracle verification & ratio validation
Gas Fee & Payload Manipulation
Attackers inflate transaction costs and exploit fee calculation flaws to drain protocol reserves.
Gas pattern analysis & fee exploit detection
Slippage Manipulation & Front-running
Transaction reordering and market manipulation cause users to receive fewer tokens than expected.
Mempool monitoring & front-run prevention
Liquidity Concentration & Honeypot Risk
Massive locked asset pools create high-value targets for sophisticated attackers.
TVL tracking & concentrated liquidity protection
Guards provide complete security coverage of every onchain

Frequently asked questions
Need more information?
What is real-time security monitoring for cross-chain bridges?
Continuous oversight of validators, transactions, and cross-chain messages to detect attacks and exploits before funds are lost.
How do validator key compromises impact bridges?
If validator keys are stolen or abused, attackers can authorize fraudulent withdrawals and drain the entire bridge reserve.
Can Guardrail detect MEV attacks across chains?
Yes. Guardrail analyzes transaction ordering and price flows across chains, flagging sandwich attacks and arbitrage exploitation.
How does Guardrail prevent oracle manipulation?
It cross-references multiple data sources and detects abnormal deviations in price feeds to stop fake ratios or distorted valuations.
