OpenZeppelin

OpenZeppelin is a Web3 security platform providing tools for secure smart contract development, deployment, monitoring, and automation. The platform includes OpenZeppelin Contracts (battle-tested Solidity libraries), Defender (a developer security platform for auditing, deploying, and operating blockchain applications), the open-source OpenZeppelin Relayer for transaction relay infrastructure across EVM, Solana, and Stellar networks, and OpenZeppelin Monitor for real-time on-chain activity detection and alerting. Defender is sunsetting on July 1, 2026, with users migrating to the open-source Relayer and Monitor projects.

    description: >
      The OpenZeppelin Defender API provides programmatic access to the Defender security
      platform, enabling management of smart contract deployments, transaction relaying,
      automated monitoring, on-chain governance proposals, and security automation
      workflows. The API uses JWT token authentication negotiated via SRP protocol and
      exposes modules for Deploy, Proposal, Relay, Action, Monitor, Admin, Networks,
      and Relay-Signer operations.

  - name: OpenZeppelin Relayer API
    description: >
      The OpenZeppelin Relayer is an open-source transaction relay infrastructure service
      that enables decentralized applications to submit and manage blockchain transactions
      across EVM-compatible networks (Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism), Solana,
      and Stellar. The self-hosted REST API provides endpoints for relayer management,
      transaction submission and signing, nonce management, gas estimation, and RPC
      calls. It supports gasless transactions, sponsored transactions, and configurable
      policies with rate limiting at 100 requests/second (burst 300).

      OpenZeppelin Monitor is an open-source blockchain monitoring service that watches
      for specific on-chain activities and triggers notifications based on configurable
      conditions. It supports real-time monitoring of EVM-compatible networks, Solana,
      and Stellar with flexible match conditions on functions, events, and transactions.
      Notification channels include Slack, Discord, Email, Telegram, Webhooks, and
      custom scripts. Configurable via JSON files with cron-based scheduling and
      optional metrics server on port 8081.

    description: >
      The OpenZeppelin Contracts library provides a comprehensive collection of modular,
      reusable, and secure Solidity smart contracts for building decentralized applications.
      The API reference covers ERC token standards (ERC-20, ERC-721, ERC-1155), access
      control, governance, security utilities (reentrancy guards, pausable), upgradeable
      proxy patterns, and cryptographic primitives. Used by thousands of blockchain
      projects as the industry standard for secure smart contract development.
