Security

Beyond smart contract audits, the Altitude protocol employs a variety of additional security measures.

Threat monitoring

We've implemented Hypernative's real-time threat monitoring and response solution to enhance our ability to safeguard assets and ensure platform integrity. This will not only improve our operational security but also provide our users with an added layer of protection against potential threats.

Rate limiter

The rate limit is a security consideration that can limit the impact of any possible exploits. It controls how much can be extracted from the protocol at any time. It works by setting both:

• an amount that can be extracted and

• the period this amount can be extracted within

The mechanism of the rate limit allows the entire amount to be withdrawn at the beginning of the period and with time passing the amount is increasing linearly.
