A Game-Changing Security Solution with Comprehensive Expertise and Continuous Engagement: Your code undergoes a meticulous review process, first by Hacken’s dedicated auditors and then by a global community of HackenProof whitehats. This layered approach ensures that your code is examined from multiple angles, providing a comprehensive assessment that covers both known vulnerabilities and emerging threats. The collaborative effort between auditors and whitehats ensures that your project benefits from a diverse set of eyes, increasing the likelihood of identifying and mitigating potential risks. More security at no extra cost: By combining audits with crowdsourced assessments, your project benefits from a more efficient use of resources. The risk-sharing model with the Hacken community means that your project is protected from the financial burden of unexpected bug bounty payouts. This approach allows you to allocate your treasury more effectively, ensuring that critical security issues are managed without straining your financial resources.

Question 3

Which Hacken services are eligible for DualDefense?

Accepted Answer

Any of our Smart Contract Audits, Blockchain Protocol Audits, Penetration Tests, and dApp Audits are eligible for DualDefense.

Question 4

Does my project’s code need to be public?

Accepted Answer

Your project's source code does not need to be public during the Hacken audit stage. However, for the crowdsourced audit phase, the code should be made accessible to independent researchers on HackenProof.

Question 5

What happens if a critical vulnerability is found?

Accepted Answer

A critical vulnerability is a severe security flaw that could lead to significant financial loss, unauthorized access, or compromise of the system’s integrity. If a critical vulnerability is found, you get to be the first to uncover it, verified by the HackenProof triage team. The whitehat hacker who identifies the flaw is rewarded from the DualDefense FlashPool, so you don’t pay for the crowdsourced audit. Hacken provides immediate remediation on the spot, ensuring enhanced security and comprehensive protection for your project at no additional cost.

Question 6

Where does the reward for white hats come from?

Accepted Answer

DualDefense is powered by DualDefense Flash Pools –  30-day staking smart contracts. The reward and APY are generated through Hacken sharing its revenue and $HAI holders staking their tokens in DualDefense Flash Pools. The Hacken team contributes USDC into the Flash Pool (typically a share of the audit cost), and $HAI holders stake their tokens as well. Clients gain enhanced security and comprehensive protection at no extra costs, while $HAI stakers can earn up to 180% APY.
