Ethereum Foundation, a non-profit organization supporting the Ethereum blockchain, has announced the launch of the “Trillion Dollar Security Dashboard,” a new initiative designed to provide a comprehensive and structured view of Ethereum’s overall security posture.
The dashboard aims to highlight key risks, mitigation efforts, and progress across the ecosystem, covering six critical areas: user experience, smart contract security, infrastructure and cloud security, the consensus protocol, monitoring and incident response, and the social layer and governance.
Ethereum has maintained security and resilience for over a decade, safeguarding billions in on-chain value. The initiative aims to make Ethereum’s security measurable, improve ecosystem-wide visibility, and communicate the network’s security posture, ensuring it can scale as neutral, open infrastructure for the global economy.
Security begins with user-facing interfaces, where key management, transaction readability, permissions, and interface integrity directly affect outcomes. Smart contracts, which manage funds and enforce application logic, are critical on-chain components due to their transparency and accessibility.
Ethereum’s security also depends on the supporting infrastructure, including Layer 2 chains, RPC and node systems, and the software and cloud supply chain, where weaknesses can bypass on-chain protections. The consensus protocol ensures that blockchain states remain valid and consistent, even under validator faults or adversarial conditions, forming the basis of trust for applications in finance, governance, and real-world assets.
In a permissionless ecosystem, effective monitoring and incident response are vital to detect, contain, and remediate issues without centralized intervention. The social layer—comprising participants, organizations, governance processes, and cultural norms—further shapes security and resilience, highlighting the interplay between technical and social factors in Ethereum’s overall safety.
The initiative is part of the Trillion Dollar Security project, an ecosystem-wide effort to strengthen and advance Ethereum’s security. Over the past decade, Ethereum has established itself as one of the most secure, resilient, and trusted blockchain ecosystems, developing the technology, standards, and expertise that now support millions of users and more than $600 billion in on-chain capital.
Despite this progress, the Ethereum community recognizes that additional improvements are needed to support the next phase of global adoption. The project seeks to create an environment in which billions of individuals can securely hold significant on-chain assets, collectively reaching trillions of dollars, and where companies, institutions, and governments can safely store and transact comparable sums within single contracts or applications.
The Trillion Dollar Security initiative is specifically designed to address these challenges and ensure Ethereum can scale securely as a foundation for global financial and digital activity.
