Securing Cross-chain Communication

Duration: 00:24:07

Speaker: Nithin Eappen

Type: Talk

Expertise: Intermediate

Event: Devcon

Date: Oct 2022

The last year witnessed several cross-chain bridges being hacked and millions of dollars stolen by hackers. Despite the bridges having gone through several audits, we still see them getting exploited because hackers were able to get access to authorized private keys, signature replay attacks, etc. Let us see what a secure cross-chain bridge architecture should look like and what are the possible attack vectors and mitigation techniques.
