Monad Dev: smaller systems reduce the attack surface
Monad Dev argues that security often starts by reducing the system: unnecessary features, permissions, dependencies, and stored data expand the attack surface.
## Key idea
Monad Dev points to a simple security principle: do not store or add what the system does not need.
## Practical context
Every feature, permission, dependency, or piece of data creates additional surface to secure. Reducing the number of components can limit potential attack vectors.
Why it matters
For developers, this is a reminder to question whether each feature, permission, dependency, and piece of data is truly necessary. Lower complexity can mean fewer components to secure.
