Asymmetric Research

Web3 founders and developers operate in an environment where the stakes couldn't be higher. Building in this space means navigating immense pressure to innovate and ship quickly, all while facing sophisticated and evolving security threats. A single vulnerability can lead to catastrophic losses, eroding user trust and jeopardizing the entire project. Founders need more than just a one-time audit; they require a deeply integrated security partner who understands the nuances of their technology and the broader ecosystem. They face the challenge of embedding security into their development lifecycle from day one, ensuring that their systems are not only powerful but also resilient against attack.

Asymmetric Research was built to address these critical challenges by serving as the most trusted security firm on the planet. We provide deep, embedded partnerships for L1/L2 blockchains and DeFi protocols, acting as a seamless extension of our clients' teams. Our approach is proactive, focusing on systematically eliminating bug classes over time rather than just reacting to incidents. We join standups, strategy calls, and boards, ensuring our security expertise informs every stage of development. Our services span security engineering, where we conduct deep internal code reviews and fuzzing; enterprise security, providing infrastructure and incident response for high-value systems; and platform engineering, where we build and run high-assurance infrastructure. This holistic engagement model allows us to help our clients build with confidence, knowing their security posture is robust and their innovations are protected by a team committed to rigor, long-term thinking, and high-trust collaboration.
