There Is No Patch Tuesday on the Blockchain: Why Solidity Developers Need Fusion-Grade AppSec Before They Deploy
Checkmarx argues Solidity developers need pre-deployment AppSec because disclosure-to-weaponization time has collapsed from 840 days to 1.6 days.
A Checkmarx write-up contrasts traditional software patch cycles with blockchain development, where there is no Patch Tuesday and fixes require on-chain upgrades. It cites stats that median disclosure-to-weaponization time collapsed from 840 days to 1.6 days and that 80% of exploitations now occur on or before disclosure day. The piece advocates fusion-grade application security for Solidity teams before contracts deploy.
