Solana Security Indicators

📘
This page documents the advanced security checks the Scanner API performs on Solana tokens. Solana tokens often include authorities and extensions that can impact security and decentralization. The Scanner API extracts and evaluates these to help identify risks such as mintability, freeze authority, pausable transfers, mutable metadata, transfer taxes, and frozen accounts.
