About Phylax

Phylax Systems is a tech startup building a credible security protocol for decentralized applications (DApps) on L2 networks by actively censoring hacks on the underlying network.

We believe that the future of security is through open-source software and tools that enable users to share security practices, what we call open security. We take a different stance than most of our competitors, who build closed-source software.

We believe that security software can be open source, without needing "security through obscurity", by crafting protocols and pieces of software that are of sound design and thoughtfully implemented.

Our team solves one of the most challenging problems in Web3: Security.

The Phylax team's decision to work on hack prevention came directly from our own experience with a hack. Having experienced its devastating results, we knew that we needed to do something about it.
