Blockfence, a security aggregation provider, has teamed up with Forta Network, a decentralized monitoring network specializing in Web3 threat detection and prevention.

This collaboration aims to improve the security of Web3 users by identifying suspicious Ethereum smart contracts using Forta’s monitoring platform. As a result, Blockfence users will be better protected from potential losses caused by wallet drainers, phishing, and other scams.
