Frequently Asked Questions
What is a blockchain protocol security audit?
A blockchain protocol audit is a comprehensive security assessment of the core infrastructure that powers blockchain networks. This includes examining cryptographic implementations, consensus mechanisms, network protocols, state management, and execution environments to identify vulnerabilities before they can be exploited.
How long does a blockchain protocol audit take?
The duration depends on the complexity and scope of the protocol. Simple protocol audits may take 4 to 6 weeks, while comprehensive L1 audits with full consensus and VM analysis typically require 8 to 12 weeks. We provide detailed timelines during the scoping phase.
What types of protocols do you audit?
We audit Layer 1 blockchains, Layer 2 scaling solutions, rollups, sidechains, cross-chain bridges, and custom consensus implementations. Our team has experience with Rust, Go, C++, and other systems languages commonly used in protocol development.
How can a blockchain protocol get hacked?
Protocols can be compromised through consensus vulnerabilities, cryptographic weaknesses, P2P network attacks, state manipulation bugs, RPC exploits, or execution environment flaws. Our audits systematically examine all these attack surfaces to identify potential risks.
