Dedge Security has joined the Canton Foundation as a General Member, marking an important milestone in our mission to enable secure, enterprise-grade adoption of decentralized technologies.

This step reflects our continued commitment to building a secure, interoperable, and scalable future for decentralized systems, particularly in regulated and institutional environments where trust, privacy, and resilience are non-negotiable.

By becoming part of the Canton Foundation, Dedge brings advanced application security expertise to one of the most significant infrastructure initiatives shaping the future of institutional blockchain and asset mobility.

Advancing Security and Trust in the Canton Ecosystem

The Canton Foundation plays a critical role in the governance of the Canton Network, providing neutral oversight of the Global Synchronizer while ensuring transparency and active member engagement in decisions made by network operators (Super Validators). This community-driven governance model is fundamental to maintaining a reliable, fair, and trusted infrastructure—preventing centralized control and supporting institutional-grade adoption.

The Canton Network enables blockchain applications to execute atomic transactions across sovereign blockchains without sacrificing privacy or control. Designed as a privacy-enabled, interoperable “network of networks,” Canton connects traditionally siloed financial systems while enforcing need-to-know data visibility—an essential requirement for banks, asset managers, and regulated financial institutions operating in real-world asset and capital markets.

As decentralized infrastructure increasingly underpins real-world financial activity, security must evolve from periodic assurance to continuous protection. This is where Dedge’s role becomes critical.

“Joining the Canton Foundation is a natural step in Dedge’s mission to secure decentralized systems at enterprise scale,” said Rubén Jiménez, Co-Founder and CEO of Dedge Security. “The Canton Network represents a new generation of institutional blockchain infrastructure, and we believe continuous, code-to-chain security is essential to ensuring its long-term resilience and trust.”

Bringing Application Security Posture Management to Institutional Web3

As the first Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) platform purpose-built for Web3, Dedge delivers:

• Continuous risk analysis across smart contracts and decentralized applications.

• Contextual code-to-chain visibility, connecting development pipelines with on-chain reality.

• Automated protection and remediation, reducing reliance on manual audits alone.

Our platform is designed to meet the demands of enterprise-scale, regulated environments, helping organizations confidently deploy and operate decentralized applications as adoption accelerates.

By joining the Canton Foundation, Dedge contributes cybersecurity expertise to an ecosystem that already supports trillions of dollars in tokenized assets, reinforcing security as a foundational pillar.

Introducing early DAML support

As part of our commitment to the Canton ecosystem, Dedge is also introducing early access support for DAML, the smart contract language powering applications on the Canton Network. DAML was built for regulated financial environments, where authorization, data visibility, and multi-party workflows are enforced directly at the application level. 

With this release, Dedge extends its ASPM capabilities to deliver DAML-native security analysis, giving teams building on Canton continuous visibility into security and correctness risks at the application layer. This makes Dedge one of the first Web3 security platforms to offer dedicated support for DAML-based ecosystems, reinforcing our focus on preventative, automated security from code to chain.

“As decentralized technologies move deeper into regulated finance, security can’t be reactive. Our involvement in the Canton Foundation and our DAML release allows us to support this ecosystem with preventative, automated security that scales with both innovation and institutional requirements.” said Paco Moral, Co-Founder and CMO of Dedge Security.

A Shared Vision for Secure, Scalable Decentralized Finance

Dedge’s participation in the Canton Foundation reflects a shared vision:
decentralized infrastructure that is open and innovative, yet secure enough for the world’s most demanding financial institutions.

As the Canton ecosystem continues to grow, Dedge remains focused on ensuring that growth is matched with resilience, and adoption is underpinned by trust.

We look forward to collaborating with fellow members of the Canton Foundation to help define best practices, strengthen security standards, and support the next phase of institutional Web3 adoption.

About the Canton Foundation

The Canton Foundation fosters the development, growth, and governance of the Global Synchronizer within the Canton Network. It provides transparency and member engagement in decisions made by Super Validators, ensuring a reliable, fair, and trusted service. The Foundation plays a central role in maintaining organizational neutrality while enabling innovation across the Canton ecosystem.

About the Canton Network

The Canton Network is the only permissioned blockchain in the financial industry with on-chain privacy designed for the seamless movement of assets and capital on decentralized open rails. With over $3.6 trillion in tokenized assets on-chain, Canton delivers institutional-grade scale, configurable privacy, and control, bridging tradfi and crypto ecosystems. Launched in July 2024, the network is governed by the Canton Foundation to ensure neutrality and long-term innovation.
