Security review checklist for cross-chain systems
A practical checklist for evaluating trust boundaries in interoperability designs.
Before adopting an interoperability component, identify privileged actors, upgrade keys, verifier assumptions and emergency controls.
Before adopting an interoperability component, identify privileged actors, upgrade keys, verifier assumptions and emergency controls. Test delayed messages, replay attempts, chain reorganizations and partial settlement. Record the exact code revision and network assumptions behind each security assessment. A review is evidence tied to a specific version, not a permanent guarantee of safety.
