Security for Crypto, DeFi & Web3

Cryptocurrency exchanges, DeFi protocols, and Web3 applications are high-value targets. We provide smart contract audits, protocol security assessments, and penetration testing built for the unique attack surface of blockchain-based platforms.

Threat Landscape

Why This Industry Is Targeted

The sectors and verticals we protect in this space.

Centralized Cryptocurrency Exchanges DeFi Lending and Borrowing Protocols NFT Marketplaces and Minting Platforms Cross-Chain Bridges and Aggregators DAO Governance Platforms Cryptocurrency Custodians and Wallets GameFi and Play-to-Earn Platforms Stablecoin Issuers and Payment Rails

The crypto and Web3 space has lost billions to exploits, rug pulls, and protocol vulnerabilities. Smart contract bugs have drained entire protocols in minutes. Bridge exploits have led to nine-figure losses. Exchange hot wallets have been compromised through social engineering and insider threats. The threat landscape is uniquely dangerous because transactions are irreversible, code is immutable once deployed, and attackers can profit instantly through flash loans and MEV extraction. Most Web3 projects ship fast and audit later - if they audit at all. The composability of DeFi means a vulnerability in one protocol can cascade across the entire ecosystem. Security testing is not optional in this space - it is existential.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What blockchains do you audit?
We audit smart contracts on Ethereum and EVM-compatible chains (Polygon, Arbitrum, BSC, Avalanche), Solana (Rust/Anchor), and other major platforms. Our auditors have deep experience with DeFi protocol patterns, token standards, and cross-chain bridge architectures.
Do you test both the smart contracts and the web application?
Yes. Most Web3 projects have a traditional web frontend, backend APIs, and smart contracts on-chain. We test the full stack because attackers target the weakest link - a secure smart contract means nothing if the frontend has an XSS vulnerability that can trick users into signing malicious transactions.
How quickly can you turn around an audit before a launch?
Depending on contract complexity, we can deliver initial findings within 1-2 weeks for smaller contracts and 2-4 weeks for complex DeFi protocols. We understand the pace of Web3 launches and can prioritize critical path reviews when time is tight.
Do you provide the attestation letter exchanges and investors require?
Yes. We provide a formal audit attestation that can be shared publicly or with partners, investors, and listing platforms. This includes scope, methodology, findings summary, and remediation status.
Can you test our protocol against flash loan attacks?
Absolutely. Flash loan attacks, oracle manipulation, and economic exploits are core parts of our DeFi testing methodology. We model economic attack scenarios and test for composability risks that arise from your protocol interacting with other DeFi primitives.
