An effective approach to secure your blockchain network
Security
Identify potential threats and attack vectors that could be used to compromise the security of the blockchain protocol.
Reliability
Ensure that the blockchain network functions properly and performs as intended, which is essential for maintaining the trust of users and stakeholders
Compliance
Ensure that the blockchain system is compliant with relevant regulations and industry standards, reducing the risk of legal or regulatory issues.
Transparency
Provide greater transparency into the blockchain system's operations, making it easier to identify errors or inconsistencies and address them quickly
Reputation
Help build trust and confidence in the blockchain system among users, investors, and other stakeholders, which can enhance its reputation and value
How we audit
Review the documentation
Reviewing your organization's cloud infrastructure, including servers, networks, and storage, as well as the architecture of the systems and how they are configured
Understand the consensus
Understand the consensus mechanism used by the blockchain protocol. This will help to identify any potential weaknesses in the mechanism that could be exploited
Perform code review
Perform a thorough code review of the blockchain protocol, looking for potential vulnerabilities, such as buffer overflow, SQL injection, and other common software vulnerabilities
Test the code
Use automated testing tools to test the code for potential vulnerabilities. This includes unit testing, integration testing, and regression testing
Perform penetration testing
Perform penetration testing to simulate a real-world attack on the blockchain protocol. This includes trying to exploit vulnerabilities identified during the code review and testing
Evaluate compliance
Evaluate the blockchain protocol for compliance with relevant regulations and industry standards
Interoperability testing
Evaluate the blockchain protocol's compatibility with other blockchain networks and systems, ensuring that the protocol can interact with other systems in the ecosystem
Performance testing
Evaluate the blockchain protocol's performance, including its scalability, gas consumption, and usability
Reporting
Create a detailed report of the audit findings, including any vulnerabilities or issues identified, and recommendations for addressing them
Provide remediation support
Provide assistance with addressing any issues or vulnerabilities identified during the audit, including guidance on how to remediate the issues
