Overview

As Web3 technologies redefine the digital landscape, organizations increasingly rely on decentralized cloud infrastructures to support blockchain-based systems, smart contracts, and decentralized applications. A Web3 Cloud Infrastructure Assessment evaluates the security, scalability, and resilience of these infrastructures. The assessment focuses on ensuring seamless integration with decentralized networks, compliance with emerging regulations, and mitigation of unique Web3-related risks such as smart contract vulnerabilities, token security, and decentralized identity management.

Key Provisions

1. Blockchain Infrastructure Security:
   • Evaluates the underlying security of nodes, consensus mechanisms, and blockchain storage.
2. Smart Contract Risk Assessment:
   • Identifies vulnerabilities in smart contracts to prevent exploitation and financial loss.
3. Token Management and Security:
   • Reviews mechanisms for managing tokens, wallets, and cryptographic keys.
4. Decentralized Identity (DID) Assessment:
   • Ensures secure implementation and management of decentralized identity solutions.
5. Data Privacy and Sovereignty Compliance:
   • Ensures compliance with regulations such as GDPR and DPDP for distributed and decentralized data storage.
6. Interoperability Check:
   • Evaluates compatibility between different blockchains and cloud platforms to prevent silos.
7. Cloud Integration Review:
   • Analyze configurations for hybrid cloud setups that incorporate Web3 technologies.
8. Threat Modelling and Incident Response:
   • Assesses potential attack vectors, such as 51% attacks or oracle vulnerabilities, and provides mitigation plans.
