Join UZH Blockchain Center for an insightful lecture on “Software Supply Chain Attacks and Defenses for Web3” with Dr Martin Monperrus.
Dr Martin Monperrus is a Professor of Software Technology at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden and the co-founder of MAB.
Abstract:
In this talk, we’ll dive into the world of software supply chain attacks, especially in the context of Web3. As more and more value is handled by dApps, they become targets for hackers looking to exploit vulnerabilities. We’ll break down what these attacks look like, why they’re a big deal, and how they can impact everything from your favorite dApps to the entire blockchain ecosystem. But don’t worry! We’ll also cover some practical defenses and best practices to help keep your projects safe.
