What is DSS

The DeFi Security Summit (DSS) is one of the most important global gatherings focused on the intersection of decentralized finance and cybersecurity. It's more than just a conference — it's where the future of secure Web3 infrastructure is being shaped.
Every year, DSS brings together top minds in blockchain, auditing, and security — from white-hat hackers and protocol developers to academic researchers and industry leaders. The goal? To tackle the most pressing issues in DeFi security head-on — from smart contract exploits and cross-chain vulnerabilities to governance threats and beyond.
