BlockSec Partners with IOC and AЯMRD to Enhance Web 3.0 Security

Code Auditing
January 17, 2024

Introduction:

In the rapidly evolving landscape of blockchain technology, security remains a paramount concern. As the adoption of Web 3.0 continues to grow, the need for robust security measures becomes more pressing. To address this, BlockSec who conduct cutting-edge research, provide reliable security services and build insightful tools, has formally agreed to partner with Intelligence On Chain's (IOC) brand new suite of services called 'AЯMRD.'

IOC have positioned AЯMRD to become the Ultimate Web 3.0 Help desk, by offering a whole suite of services to new and existing crypto projects, that provide end to end security.

The collaboration between BlockSec, IOC, and AЯMRD marks a significant stride towards fortifying the foundations of decentralised applications. By leveraging cutting-edge tools and high-quality auditing services, the partnership is poised to set new standards for security in the blockchain space, ensuring a safer and more secure future for Web 3.0.

The Partnership:

BlockSec, has entered into a strategic partnership with IOC and AЯMRD to provide advanced auditing services and leverage their innovative tools for enhanced security, within the AЯMRD ecosystem. This collaboration aims to make the Web 3.0 space safer by proactively preventing attacks during both the design and live phases of smart contracts.

Utilising BlockSec's Smart Contract Auditing Services:

BlockSec's smart contract auditing services play a pivotal role in securing smart contracts. By thoroughly reviewing the codebase and identifying vulnerabilities, BlockSec ensures that smart contracts are resistant to potential exploits. This proactive approach is essential in preventing security breaches that could compromise the integrity of decentralised applications (DApps).

Phalcon: A Cutting-Edge Security Solution:

As part of this collaboration, BlockSec will deploy BlockSec Phalcon as a part of AЯMRD, the Web 3.0 Helpdesk allowing IOC to offer attack detecting and automated defense for protocols as a part of its package. Phalcon employs state-of-the-art techniques to identify and mitigate potential threats as they occur and prior to the attacked being confirmed on the blockchain, significantly reducing the impact of vulnerabilities in their smart contracts. Phalcon will be combined with many more offerings (within AЯMRD) and available through a subscription model.

IOC commits to using MetaSleuth exclusively:

In an effort to provide all-round comprehensive security package, IOC has agreed to exclusively utilise MetaSleuth as its Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) visualisation tool, which has unique advantages in cross-chain analysis, intelligently displaying key pathways, and matching flashswap transactions. In the event that a client is exposed to a hack or exploit, IOC will pursue the attackers using MetaSleuth, a long time preferred tool.

Making Web 3.0 Safer:

The combined efforts of BlockSec, IOC, and AЯMRD represent a significant step forward in making Web 3.0 safer for users and developers alike. By incorporating smart contract auditing services, advanced security tools like Phalcon, and real-time visualisation with MetaSleuth, the partnership aims to create a resilient blockchain ecosystem that withstands potential attacks.

~$1.35M Lost: BarnBridge, DeFiTuna | BlockSec Weekly

This weekly report covers 2 security incidents from July 13 to July 19, 2026, with approximately $1.35M in total losses on Ethereum and Solana. DeFiTuna, a Solana lending protocol, lost ~$570K because the position health check treated a zero-value position as healthy regardless of outstanding debt; the attacker used controlled swap routing and a separate low-liquidity pool to trigger this defect. BarnBridge lost ~$776K after an attacker exploited the protocol's deprecated but still-active governance system on Ethereum to pass a malicious proposal and drain user-approved USDC.

~$800K Lost: Hinkal Double-Spend | BlockSec Weekly

This weekly security report covers 1 notable incident from June 29 to July 5, 2026, with approximately $800K in total losses on Ethereum. The Hinkal shielded-pool protocol was drained through a double-spend attack that likely exploited a flaw in the legacy note format, allowing the attacker to derive multiple nullifiers from a single deposit. The report analyzes the probable circuit-level vulnerability, the attack flow, and broader implications for nullifier-based privacy protocols.

Newsletter - June 2026

This monthly report covers the three largest security incidents in June 2026, totaling approximately $22M in confirmed losses. A sophisticated honeypot attack drained ~$15M from JaredFromSubway's MEV bot by exploiting unchecked token allowances. Two legacy Aztec rollup deployments lost ~$4.35M through proof-settlement boundary gaps. SecondFi's Ed25519 implementation flaw exposed wallet private keys, resulting in ~$2.4M drained from 374 wallets. All three incidents share a common pattern: security guarantees that appeared intact on the surface but were never actually enforced.
