Identify and classify threats
Identify potential threats that could exploit vulnerabilities in the company’s assets, such as hacking, fraud, and malicious actors.
Evaluate vulnerability
Evaluate the vulnerability of the company’s assets to identified threats, taking into account factors such as the complexity of the smart contracts, the security of the blockchain infrastructure, and the security practices of the company.
Determine the impact
Determine the potential impact of a successful attack on the company’s assets, including the loss of sensitive data, financial loss, and reputational damage.
Develop and implement controls
Develop and implement controls to mitigate identified risks, such as secure coding practices, regular security audits, and incident response plans.
Continuously monitor and review

It’s also important to work with experts who have experience in this field, web3 and blockchain security are still new and evolving field, and having expertise in this area will help identify and mitigate potential risks.
