Tech Peculiarities
“There are 2 auditors who check your code separately from each other. Their results are then verified by a senior auditor. Thus, it a triple-check of your code minimizing the risk that any issue may remain undetected”.
Hacken is among the best smart contract audit companies. Hacken methodology is accepted by CoinGecko, CoinMarketCap, and Cer.live. We apply a four-stage approach to code review and analysis as it’s the most critical part. First, we run automatic tests to check all possible states of the contract and catch simple issues. While the fine use of automatic tools limits the final smart contract audit cost, manual review is the priority of our smart contract security audit methodology. Second, two separate auditors conduct independent line-to-line code reviews and analyses. Third, the lead auditor manually checks the parallel audits and performs an additional code review. Finally, auditors share the results and work out all disputable points. The smart contract audit by Hacken is so effective because it relies on several auditors to detect hidden weaknesses. We encourage our customers to go through our methodology before the audit and discuss any concerns and suggestions.

FAQ
-
What are smart contracts?
Smart contracts are digital contracts that automatically execute transactions once predetermined conditions are met. Smart contracts are executed when certain pre-programmed conditions are met.
-
Why do web3 projects rely on smart contracts?
Smart contracts facilitate trade between anonymous and known parties since there is no need for a middleman. Smart contracts provide the benefits of security, disintermediation, transparency, and near real-time execution. They ensure the credibility of transactions and thereby promote trust between players.
-
What are smart contract security risks?
They may seem like complicated systems, but all smart contracts are still computer programs or protocols with function statements and variables that are vulnerable to hacks and exploits. Many smart contracts are fraudulent in nature: unethical actors insert malicious functionality to get unauthorized access and steal money. In our practice, we have seen dozens of unique and repeated loopholes inserted in the code. Besides, some parts of the protocol can be of low quality in terms of protection. Hackers carefully study all the errors and try to capitalize on them. There is a real risk of losing hundreds, thousands, or even millions of dollars due to exploits of smart contract vulnerabilities. A full audit by a team of professionals will help protect your financial interests by identifying and removing all vulnerabilities and exploits.
-
What is a smart contract audit?
The audit process consists of vulnerability assessments of smart contracts as well as identification of security flaws and network vulnerabilities. The audit team will review existing security practices that the project uses in its smart contracts. The auditing firm will also provide recommendations to the project team on security policies and better security controls designed to protect the project from new vulnerabilities.
-
Can I conduct a smart contract audit myself?
We encourage projects to use their internal resources to review smart contracts. Internal audits can identify vulnerabilities. However, there is extra value to professional audit. A third-party auditing team offers an external call. This is the only way to receive an authoritative opinion and informed recommendations on your code from the outside. On top of that, the internal team may lack the necessary expertise or time to comprehensively review a smart contract. External audit firms have entire teams that specialize in security research and smart contract vulnerability assessment.
-
What benefits does a company get upon passing a contract audit?
Smart contract audit allows a company to detect and then eliminate vulnerabilities in a smart contract by exploiting which attackers can cause serious damage to this company and its clients. The passed audit will also serve as a confirmation of the company’s reliability for potential partners and investors.
-
Will I get recommendations on how to address detected issues after an audit?
Yes, our specialists will provide you with a report containing step-by-step recommendations on how to eliminate detected issues.
-
What is the duration of a smart contract audit?
The duration of a smart contract audit varies depending on the audit scope and complexity. Generally, the audit duration is specified before the process starts so that a customer knows the expected delivery date.
-
Do security engineers pay attention only to security vulnerabilities?
Although the main focus during the audit is made on security flaws, our specialists will also advise a client on how to improve the code functionality for better performance.
-
