DAO Governance Contract Security Scanner

Automated, in-depth security analysis for on-chain governance modules. We scan Compound Governor, OpenZeppelin Governor, and custom implementations for critical vulnerabilities in proposal flow, voting logic, and timelock execution.

overview
CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built for scale and compliance.

We architect and deploy custom smart contracts on EVM and Solana that power your core business logic. Our focus is on security-first development, leveraging audited patterns from OpenZeppelin and Solana Program Library to mitigate risks from day one.

  • From MVP to Mainnet: Go from concept to a fully audited, gas-optimized contract in 2-4 weeks.
  • Multi-Chain Strategy: Build for Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, or Solana with a unified development approach.
  • Compliance Ready: Integrate standards like ERC-20, ERC-721, and ERC-1155 with built-in features for regulatory adherence.

We deliver contracts that are not just functional, but are engineered for long-term security, upgradeability, and minimal gas consumption—critical for user adoption and operational cost control.

BEYOND STANDARD SECURITY

Comprehensive Governance-Specific Analysis

Our DAO Governance Scanner performs deep, context-aware analysis tailored to the unique attack vectors and failure modes of on-chain governance systems. We don't just check for generic bugs; we model the specific ways your governance can be manipulated or fail.

01

Voting Power & Delegation Analysis

Identifies centralization risks, whale dominance, and vulnerabilities in delegation logic that could lead to governance capture or vote manipulation. We map token distribution and simulate attack scenarios.

02

Proposal & Execution Logic Review

Scans for flaws in proposal creation, voting windows, quorum logic, timelocks, and execution paths. Prevents proposal spam, front-running, and faulty state transitions post-vote.

03

Treasury & Fund Management Security

Audits all interactions with the DAO treasury, including multi-sig integrations, grant disbursements, and protocol-owned liquidity management. Ensures funds can only be moved as governance intends.

Upgradeability & Governance Escalation

Analyzes proxy patterns, upgrade mechanisms, and emergency pause functions. Validates that upgrade paths are securely gated by governance and cannot be unilaterally executed.

Cross-Contract Permission Analysis

Maps and validates all permissions between governance contracts, treasury modules, and external protocols. Identifies privilege escalation risks and unintended access paths.

Gas Optimization & Cost Predictability

Benchmarks gas costs for all governance operations (propose, vote, execute). Provides optimization recommendations to keep participation affordable and prevent gas-based denial-of-service.
