Core Protection & Monitoring Capabilities
Our Slashing Protection & Monitoring Hub is engineered to eliminate downtime and financial penalties. We deliver proactive defense and real-time visibility for mission-critical staking operations.
Real-Time Slashing Detection
Continuous monitoring of validator performance across all major networks (Ethereum, Solana, Cosmos). Instant alerts for double-signing, downtime, and missed attestations, delivered via Slack, PagerDuty, or email.
Proactive Risk Mitigation
Automated failover and graceful exit strategies to prevent slashing before it occurs. Our system intelligently handles node failures, network partitions, and consensus-layer changes.
Multi-Client & Multi-Cloud Support
Seamless integration with Prysm, Lighthouse, Teku, and Nimbus clients. Deployable on AWS, GCP, Azure, or your own bare-metal infrastructure with consistent protection policies.
Compliance & Audit Trail
Immutable logs of all validator actions, health checks, and mitigation events. Generate reports for internal audits, regulatory compliance, and stakeholder transparency.
Dedicated Validator Support
Direct access to our staking DevOps engineers for emergency response, configuration tuning, and upgrade planning. We manage the infrastructure so your team can focus on growth.
Business Outcomes: Secure, Reliable Staking Operations
Our Slashing Protection & Monitoring Hub delivers measurable operational excellence, turning infrastructure into a competitive advantage for your staking business.
Zero Slashing Events
Proactive monitoring and automated failover systems prevent validator penalties, protecting your staked capital and reputation. We implement multi-layered validation and consensus monitoring to catch issues before they result in slashing.
>99.9% Validator Uptime
Achieve maximum network participation and rewards with our high-availability infrastructure and automated health checks. We ensure your validators remain online and performant through hardware redundancy and instant alerting.
Reduced Operational Overhead
Consolidate monitoring, alerting, and incident response into a single pane of glass. Our platform automates routine tasks, freeing your engineering team to focus on core product development instead of infrastructure firefighting.
Enterprise-Grade Security & Compliance
Deploy with confidence using our SOC 2 Type II compliant infrastructure. We provide detailed audit trails, role-based access control (RBAC), and integration with your existing security stack for governance and reporting.
Faster Time-to-Market
Go from zero to production-ready staking operations in weeks, not months. Our pre-configured monitoring templates and battle-tested deployment playbooks accelerate your launch on Ethereum, Solana, and other major PoS networks.
Actionable Performance Insights
Move beyond basic uptime metrics. Gain deep visibility into validator effectiveness, reward performance, and network health with custom dashboards and predictive analytics to optimize your staking strategy.
Build vs. Buy: Managing Slashing Protection In-House
A detailed comparison of the time, cost, and operational burden of building your own slashing protection system versus using Chainscore's managed service.
| Factor | Build In-House | Chainscore Hub |

Security Audit Requirement | Mandatory ($50K - $150K) | Included (Pre-audited service) |
Ongoing Maintenance & Updates | 1-2 FTE Engineers | Fully Managed |
Real-time Monitoring & Alerts | Custom build required | Included with 24/7 coverage |
Multi-Client Support (Lighthouse, Prysm, Teku) | Custom integration per client | Pre-built & maintained |
Incident Response SLA | Internal team dependent | < 1 hour guaranteed |
Total 3-Year Cost (TCO) | $500K - $1.2M+ | Predictable subscription |
Core Engineering Focus | Infrastructure maintenance | Product & growth |
Our Implementation & Support Methodology
A structured, security-first approach to deploying and maintaining your slashing protection, designed for zero downtime and maximum validator yield.
Architecture & Integration Audit
We conduct a comprehensive review of your current validator setup, consensus client, and infrastructure. Our team maps out integration points and defines a zero-impact deployment strategy, ensuring compatibility with your existing stack.
Secure, Phased Deployment
Implementation follows a staged rollout: from isolated testing on a dedicated beacon chain to shadow-mode monitoring and final production cutover. Each phase includes validation and sign-off, minimizing risk to your active validators.
24/7 Proactive Monitoring & Alerting
Post-deployment, our system provides real-time monitoring of attestation performance, proposal success, and slashing condition detection. You receive actionable alerts via PagerDuty, Slack, or email before issues impact your validators.
Dedicated Technical Support & Incident Management
Access to our engineering team for troubleshooting, configuration updates, and emergency response. We provide root-cause analysis for any slashing event and implement corrective measures to prevent recurrence.
Continuous Optimization & Reporting
We deliver monthly performance reports detailing validator effectiveness, missed attestation trends, and potential yield improvements. Our team provides actionable recommendations for optimizing your staking operations.
Protocol Upgrade & Migration Support
We manage the complexity of consensus layer upgrades (like Deneb, Electra) and client migrations for you. Our team handles compatibility testing, deployment planning, and execution to ensure uninterrupted protection.
Smart Contract Development
Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3-native engineers.
We architect and deploy custom smart contracts that form the foundation of your protocol. Our development process is built on security-first principles, utilizing OpenZeppelin libraries and comprehensive audit workflows to mitigate risk.
From tokenomics to governance, we translate your business logic into immutable, efficient code.
