Real-Time, Continuous Security Monitoring for DEXs and AMMs

Real-time monitoring is continuous, automated surveillance of every swap, pool balance, and governance action on your decentralized exchange or automated market maker. It detects flash-loan exploits, MEV manipulation, liquidity-drain attempts, and unauthorized contract changes the moment they occur, giving your team the context and reaction time needed to protect traders, LPs, and protocol funds.

No. Guardrail runs off-chain, ingesting on-chain data through node and indexer integrations. All detections, analytics, and alerting occur in Guardrail’s infrastructure, so your protocol’s gas profile and throughput remain unchanged.

Yes. By tracking swap ordering, price deltas, and gas-price spikes in real time, Guardrail can flag potential sandwich patterns within the same block and notify validators, sequencers, or your security team to intervene or rebalance fees.

MEV bots reorder pending transactions to capture profit through front-running or sandwich trades. This increases slippage and costs for regular traders.

Every guard ships with sensible defaults, but you can fine-tune thresholds, such as TVL drift percentages, slippage tolerances, or fee anomalies per pool or token pair. You can also build totally custom guards with Guardrail’s team.

Guardrail supports Slack, Discord, PagerDuty, OpsGenie, and webhooks out of the box. You can route critical alerts into your SOC dashboard, trigger runbooks that automatically adjust parameters, or even integrate on-chain circuit-breaker contracts for rapid, protocol-level response.
