How Sentinel Works

​
Smart Contract Analysis

When you interact with DeFi protocols, Sentinel analyzes the smart contracts to identify potential risks:
  • Contract verification status
  • Honeypot detection
  • Unusual permission requests
  • High-risk function calls

​
Risk Assessment System

Low Risk Verified contracts, reputable domains, no suspicious activity detected.
Medium Risk Some concerns identified, proceed with caution and review warnings.
High Risk Significant threats detected, interaction strongly discouraged.
