Web3SOC’s maturity tiers classify DeFi projects from enterprise‑grade (Tier 1) to nascent (Tier 4)

Quotes that support claims

Web3SOC’s maturity tiers range from 1 to 4, i.e., enterprise-grade to “nascent,” based on an organization’s operational, regulatory, security, and financial controls. The idea appears to be a play on the System and Organization Controls standards — like SOC 1 or SOC 2 — used to determine an organization's internal threat and confidentiality controls.

At the heart of Web3SOC There are so-called “maturity levels,” which classify DeFi projects between levels 1 and 4 — from the most established to the nascent. This approach is reminiscent of models such as SOC 1 and SOC 2, widely used in the corporate sector to assess internal controls and information security practices.
