Solana Rust Security Bootcamp
A free, 6‑week intensive, expert-led bootcamp supported by the Solana Foundation, designed to turn Rust‑curious, Web2, EVM, and Solana engineers into audit‑ready Rust security researchers.
What you'll learn
- Intensive 6‑week curriculum: Rust for systems & security engineers plus a Solana security sprint
- Built for Rust engineers, EVM devs, Web2 devs, CS students, and Solana teams
- Hands‑on work with real exploits, Solana protocols, and security tooling
- Includes capstone audit project, verified NFT certificate, and skills report
- Free to join via Solana Foundation–supported scholarship
Skills you'll gain
- Develop a deep mental model of Rust internals for systems and security engineering
- Understand Rust’s compilation chain, optimization boundaries, and runtime behavior
- Think like an attacker by studying and recreating vulnerabilities in audited Solana protocols
- Use fuzzers, linters, static analyzers, formal verification tools, and CI workflows for secure code
- Perform a real‑world Solana protocol audit and produce a full audit write‑up with threat modeling, tests, and PoCs
- Gain an audit‑readiness framework, verified NFT certificate, and Solana Rust skills report
Prerequisites
- • No prior Solana experience required
- • Familiarity with basic Rust syntax is highly recommended
Who this course is for
- → Rust engineers who want to master secure systems programming
- → EVM developers and auditors pivoting to Solana and Rust security testing
- → Computer science students looking to build secure Solana apps from day one
- → Web2 developers curious about Solana’s architecture and development stack
- → Solana engineers and teams bringing security in‑house to cut audit costs and catch bugs earlier
