The FBI recently arrested an @OpenAI engineer, accusing him of planting a covert recording device in the company’s executive conference room. Today, the DEF team published an OPSeC security expert take from @asymmetric_re's Tom Matthews. He shares advice on how to defend your office's physical security. defieducationfund.org/physic…

Solana was built for security. As the ecosystem scales, so does our investment in the tools, standards, and support. Today that commitment deepens with a new security program, active monitoring, formal verification for top protocols, and a new crisis response network. Learn more 👇
