# Vision and approach

> Cantina's approach to security: machine intelligence paired with world-class human expertise, with the human always in the driver's seat.

## Our approach

Cantina is built by security researchers, for security teams. We pair machine intelligence with world-class human expertise, and we keep the human in the driver's seat: the platform is capable of running security work end to end, and each team decides how much autonomy to grant based on its own risk and compliance posture.

We sit above your existing stack rather than replacing it. Your detection tools keep doing detection; Cantina is the reasoning, memory, and action layer that closes the resolution loop across all of them.

## Our roots

Cantina grew out of the Spearbit network of elite security researchers, which has secured more than \$100B in value and is trusted by teams like Coinbase, Uniswap, Aave, and SAP. That network still powers our audits, competitions, and bug bounty programs, and it is the human expertise the platform builds on.

## Where we're headed

Security built for a world where attackers move at machine speed, and defenders finally can too. We are working toward security that runs as a background function for every team, whatever its size.
