Wall Street closes at a record for the first time since end of January
Singapore, Singapore, April 15th, 2026, Chainwire
CredShields, a full-stack security firm specialising in blockchain and traditional security, with expertise in smart contract audits, AI-powered risk detection, and continuous monitoring, today announced it has joined the Canton Network as an official Audit Partner.
Canton Network is the public, permissionless blockchain purpose-built for institutional finance. Trusted by major financial institutions, the network processes over $8 trillion in tokenised transaction volume monthly and settles more than $350 billion in on-chain U.S. Treasuries daily.
As institutional finance accelerates its move on-chain, the security and audit requirements are both urgent and technically demanding. Canton’s configurable, sub-transaction privacy architecture, where each participant controls precisely who can see what, creates an environment that standard security firms are not equipped to handle. CredShields brings purpose-built capability: smart contract audits across Daml-based applications, AI-powered risk detection, and continuous monitoring designed for the on-chain environments where real institutional assets now operate.
The institutions built in Canton deserve security built for Canton. If you’re building on Daml or Canton, CredShields, being one of the pioneers in the space, will help you build securely and ship confidently.
"Institutional finance is moving on-chain at a pace most people haven’t registered yet. Canton is the infrastructure it’s moving onto. The security stakes are significant and that’s exactly the environment CredShields was built for." - said Shashank, Co-founder CredShields.About CredShields
