Smart Contract Upgrade Risk Assessment

overview

SCALABLE FOUNDATION

Blockchain Infrastructure for FinTechs

Enterprise-grade blockchain infrastructure designed for financial services compliance and scale.

We architect and manage the secure, compliant infrastructure your FinTech needs to launch and scale. Our solutions provide 99.9% uptime SLAs, bank-grade security audits, and multi-region redundancy to meet financial industry standards.

Regulatory Alignment: Infrastructure designed for GDPR, MiCA, and AML/KYC compliance.
High-Performance Nodes: Dedicated EVM and Solana RPC endpoints with sub-second latency.
Managed Services: Full lifecycle management, monitoring, and 24/7 incident response.
Cost Optimization: Transparent pricing models that reduce infrastructure spend by up to 40% versus in-house builds.

Deploy a production-ready, compliant blockchain stack in under 2 weeks, not months. We handle the infrastructure so your team can focus on building your core product.

PROVEN METHODOLOGY

Our Upgrade Risk Assessment Framework

A systematic, four-phase approach to de-risk smart contract upgrades, ensuring security, functionality, and governance integrity before deployment.

Architectural & Code Review

Deep analysis of upgrade patterns (Transparent vs UUPS), storage layout conflicts, and dependency risks. We identify architectural flaws that could lead to data corruption or reentrancy vulnerabilities.

100%

Code Coverage

OpenZeppelin

Standards

Security & Vulnerability Analysis

Comprehensive audit against known attack vectors specific to upgrades: initialization exploits, function selector clashes, and proxy storage collisions. Includes automated and manual review.

Tooling

Integration & State Validation

Verification of post-upgrade state integrity and external contract compatibility. We simulate the upgrade in a forked mainnet environment to test integrations with oracles, bridges, and DeFi protocols.

Governance & Rollback Planning

Assessment of upgrade governance (multisig, timelocks, DAO) and creation of a verified rollback plan. Ensures the upgrade process itself is secure and reversible in case of failure.

CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3-native engineers.

We architect and deploy custom smart contracts that form the backbone of your protocol. Our development process is built for security and speed, delivering audit-ready code in 2-4 weeks for a typical MVP.

Security-First Architecture: Built on Solidity 0.8+ with OpenZeppelin libraries and battle-tested patterns.
Full-Stack Integration: Contracts are designed to work seamlessly with your frontend, indexers, and oracles.
Gas Optimization: Every function is optimized for efficiency, reducing user transaction costs by 15-40%.
Comprehensive Testing: Unit, integration, and scenario testing with Hardhat or Foundry before audit.

We don't just write code; we deliver the secure, economic engine for your dApp, token, or DeFi protocol.
