The RWA Protocol Security Score of 62 (B) indicates Backed Finance's security posture relative to other RWA protocols on the leaderboard. This protocol security score should be one factor in your due diligence — also review the detailed category breakdown, consider regulatory compliance in your jurisdiction, and consult security professionals for high-value decisions.
