Zero-day attacks are no longer terrifying! The breakthrough of Caldera's security model

As zero-day attacks become a significant threat to the Web3 ecosystem, a solid security defense is established for a total locked value (TVL) of $1 billion. The core of its security model lies in the precise application of cryptographic technology: using BLS signatures to construct a validator consensus mechanism, ensuring trust and collaborative security among distributed nodes efficiently; at the same time, using ECDSA to complete transaction encryption verification, making every operation possess immutable cryptographic attributes, eliminating security vulnerabilities on the transaction level from the technical bottom layer.

To further enhance security capabilities, Caldera is advancing two key technology upgrades. On one hand, it is actively developing ZK-SNARKs technology, which will provide stronger protection for user privacy through zero-knowledge proofs in the future, achieving a security effect of “data available but not visible,” addressing the industry's difficulty in balancing privacy and security; on the other hand, it plans to complete cryptographic upgrades by 2026, introducing post-quantum resistance technology to proactively prepare for security protection in the quantum computing era, ensuring long-term competitiveness for ecological security and confidently responding to challenges brought by future technological changes.$ERA

Security auditing is an important part of Caldera's verification of its own security and a key endorsement for gaining market trust. In June 2025, the globally renowned security company Trail of Bits conducted a comprehensive and rigorous audit of Caldera's smart contracts, ultimately finding no critical security issues; this result fully demonstrates the reliability and security of Caldera at the code level. Moreover, Caldera has extended the audit scope to Metalayer relays, ensuring data integrity during transmission through strict verification, further improving the ecological security chain and ensuring that security protection covers every critical link.@Caldera Official

In terms of threat response, Caldera has built a precise threat model based on deep insights into industry risks and has launched multiple efficient protective measures accordingly. Mechanically reducing the probability of single points of failure to avoid systemic risks caused by centralization; in the face of the common threat of DDoS attacks, by integrating Cloudflare protective services and limiting RPC call frequency with a dual strategy, effectively resisting traffic shocks, ensuring continuous and stable network operation, and avoiding service interruptions and asset losses caused by attacks.#caldera
