Overview

Hacken is a leading cybersecurity and blockchain security partner focused on making the decentralized ecosystem safer for builders, users, and institutions. Founded in 2017 with deep roots in Web3, Hacken combines traditional security expertise with blockchain-native insights to offer high-quality security services tailored to decentralized projects and digital asset platforms. Trusted by more than 1,500 clients — including exchanges, DeFi protocols, enterprise organizations, and regulators — Hacken helps identify vulnerabilities, mitigate risks, and enhance trust in Web3 systems.

The company’s service portfolio spans from smart contract audits and blockchain protocol assessments to penetration testing, tokenomics audits, and proof of reserves validations, covering critical layers of the blockchain stack. Its extended offerings also include HackenProof, a large-scale bug bounty platform leveraging tens of thousands of ethical hackers, and Extractor, an AI-driven threat detection and on-chain monitoring system that watches for exploits in real time.

Beyond technical assessments, Hacken provides compliance and advisory services that map to global frameworks such as DORA, MiCA, and VARA — helping projects prepare for regulatory certification and operational standards in different jurisdictions. With a global team and growing ecosystem, Hacken aims to serve as an end-to-end partner from launch to post-deployment security and compliance readiness.

Hacken’s work is rooted in its blockchain-first ethos, combining cryptographic rigor, offensive security methods, and enterprise-grade practices to protect smart contracts, infrastructure, and user assets. Over the years, it has contributed to industry standards and collaborated with bodies shaping digital asset oversight, solidifying its role as an authority in Web3 security.

The Problem

Blockchain projects face significant security challenges due to the complexity of smart contracts, decentralized infrastructure, and evolving attack vectors that can lead to costly exploits or loss of user assets. Traditional security tools and assessments often fail to provide comprehensive coverage or real-time defenses in a rapidly changing ecosystem.

High exploit risk in Web3 code and infrastructure
Fragmented security assessments across tools and vendors
Scarce continuous monitoring for post-deployment threats
