What an audit reviews
A smart contract audit reviews source code, protocol behavior, deployment assumptions, privileged roles, tests, and the ways external actors can interact with the system. The goal is to identify vulnerabilities before assets are exposed to production risk.
What can go wrong
Common failures include missing access control, reentrancy, incorrect accounting, stale oracle data, unsafe upgrade paths, signature replay, cross-chain message validation errors, and business-logic mistakes that automated scanners cannot reason about.
What clients receive
A useful audit report identifies the exact scope, affected code, severity, impact, remediation guidance, and verification status. It should help engineers fix issues and help stakeholders understand the remaining risk.
Where to start
Teams should prepare a frozen commit, architecture notes, deployment scripts, tests, known assumptions, and any areas where the team wants extra review. A focused scope creates a faster and more accurate audit.
Next step
Use this guide to improve your scope, then request a review when the contracts, documentation, and tests are ready for a frozen commit audit.
