An intensive, expert-led bootcamp supported by Solana Foundation. Built for engineers pivoting from EVM, Web2, or just Rust-curious.
An intensive, expert-led bootcamp supported by Solana Foundation. Built for engineers pivoting from EVM, Web2, or just Rust-curious.
Who is this Bootcamp for?
The program is designed for:
Rust Engineers
Rust engineers who wants to master secure systems programming
EVM → Solana
EVM devs & auditors pivoting to Solana and diving into Rust security testing
CS Students
CS students looking to build secure Solana apps from day one
Web2 Devs
Web2 developers curious about Solana’s architecture and development stack
Solana Teams
Solana engineers bringing security in-house to cut audit costs and catch bugs earlier
No prior Solana experience required.
Familiarity with basic Rust syntax is highly recommended.

What You’ll Learn and Build
Rust Internals
Develop a mental model of Rust internals: we'll dive into how Rust works under the hood, so you don’t just write safe code - you understand why it’s safe.
Compile & Optimize
Understand Rust compilation chain, optimization boundaries and how they affect runtime behavior.
Think Like an Attacker
Study vulnerabilities found in audited Solana protocols and recreate them. Study the hacker mindset and how to activate it.
Secure Tooling
Get hands-on with fuzzers, linters, static analyzers, formal verification tools and internal CI workflows for writing testable secure code.
Real-World Audit
Pick a real Solana protocol and produce a full audit write-up: from threat modeling to test cases and PoCs.
