It commences with an educational segment where participants receive guidance on the protocol\u2019s code through live technical demonstrations and instructional materials from the Attackathon Academy. This segment ensures that participants are adequately equipped to detect and comprehend potential vulnerabilities.<!-- --><\/p>\n<p><!-- --><\/p>\n<p class=\"chakra-text css-gi02ar\">Throughout the Attackathon, security researchers will diligently seek out vulnerabilities in the protocol\u2019s code. They will adhere to specific guidelines established for the competition, and only significant and compliant submissions will be rewarded. This segment emphasizes real-time problem-solving and the application of knowledge acquired during the initial phase.<!-- --><\/p>\n<p><!-- --><\/p>\n<p class=\"chakra-text css-gi02ar\">Post-Attackathon, Immunefi will assess and compile the findings into an official report.
