Summary

This proposal outlines a comprehensive initiative to harden the core infrastructure of the Canton Network through rigorous internal reviews and independent third-party security audits.

The initial batch targets several critical components essential for institutional adoption and network resilience based on their importance and due to recent changes. By identifying and remediating vulnerabilities within a standardized, repeatable workflow, this initiative aims to mitigate evolving security threats, enhance public trust, and provide the formal certifications required by large-scale commercial institutions. The effort is scheduled largely for completion by EOY 2026 to Q1 2027, ensuring the network remains secure and protocol-compliant as it scales.
