👋Introduction

Welcome to our docs. Here, we will take a deeper look into TurtleShell.

TurtleShell is a web3 initiative designed to bolster the security of DeFi protocols by introducing on-chain Firewalls also know as Circuit Breakers under the development of EIP-7265 , to detect malicious activity on protocols and prevent hacks

Whenever abnormal activity occurs, TurtleShell Firewall’s offers a range of protective measures, including transaction blocking, protocol pausing, fund freezing, or controlled fund withdrawal, thereby providing a robust defence against potential hacks.
