Sui Sentinel: Securing AI for the Web3 Frontier

AI is moving fast. Too fast, some might say.

Every week, we see new Web3 projects rush to integrate AI models, autonomous trading agents, and oracles that interpret real world events. It is exciting. But here is the uncomfortable truth: today’s AI is fragile.

You don’t need a PhD to jailbreak an LLM. A carefully crafted prompt can make even the most “aligned” model spew harmful content, leak private data, or execute unintended actions. If your smart contract relies on an AI agent to make decisions, what happens when that agent is tricked?

That is where Sui Sentinel comes in.


Built for the AI and Web3 Frontier

Sui Sentinel is the first gamified AI security platform built on the Sui blockchain. It is designed to stress-test, audit, and harden AI systems before they go live in production.

Think of it like a bug bounty for AI prompts.

  • Defenders deploy a Sentinel, an AI agent with locked funds and clear instructions.
  • Attackers try to steal those funds by tricking the AI through messages rather than exploiting code.
  • Every attack attempt costs money.
    • 50% boosts the prize pool
    • 40% rewards the Sentinel creator
    • 10% sustains the protocol
  • If your Sentinel survives 14 days without being breached, you walk away with your capital and all the fees earned.

Two Ways to Secure Your AI

1. Use Our Battle Tested Model

Sui Sentinel runs a custom trained model that is continuously stress tested and improved through live attacks on the platform. The more people attack and defend, the stronger it becomes.

For teams integrating AI into their product, this offers a ready to use, security hardened alternative without heavy research and development costs.


2. Bring Your Own Model

Already have your own AI model? You can connect it directly.

Deploy a Sentinel using your own model’s API endpoint and let the community attempt to break it for profit.

  • If they succeed, it is a clear warning that your system is not ready.
  • If it holds strong, you gain real world validation from skilled attackers in Web3.

Why This Matters Now

AI security is not just about bias or ethics. It is about system integrity. In Web3, where code is law and real funds are at stake, a single prompt exploit can drain a treasury.

  • Enterprises need confidence
  • Developers need fast feedback
  • Attackers are driven by rewards

Sui Sentinel aligns all three.

We are proud that Sui Sentinel won the Cryptography Track at Sui Overflow 2025 and was showcased at SuiFest Singapore 2025. The platform is live on Testnet, with Mainnet coming soon after the final smart contract audit.


Built on Trust with TEE, Nautilus, and Sui

Under the hood, Sui Sentinel uses Nautilus by Mysten Labs and Trusted Execution Environments such as AWS Nitro Enclaves.

  • Every AI decision runs inside a hardware secured enclave
  • Every response is cryptographically signed using ed25519
  • Responses are verified on chain by Move smart contracts

No blind trust. No hidden logic. Only verifiable and tamper resistant AI behavior.


Who Is This For?

  • Enterprises and Builders integrating AI into DeFi, gaming, or infrastructure who need their agents to remain reliable under attack
  • Prompt Engineers and Web3 Creators who want to earn passive income by building strong system prompts and staking capital as defenders
  • Red Teamers and Attackers who want a real challenge and a growing prize pool

AI has massive potential. But potential without resilience becomes risk.

At Sui Sentinel, we believe the best way to secure AI is through open stress testing, economic incentives, and on chain verification.

Come build the future of secure and auditable AI agents with us.

Mainnet is coming.
