We architect and deploy custom Solidity/Rust smart contracts that are secure by design. Every contract undergoes a multi-stage audit process, including automated analysis and manual review, before deployment to mainnet.

COMPREHENSIVE COVERAGE
What Our Scanner Detects
Our automated scanner performs deep bytecode analysis to identify critical vulnerabilities in smart contract initialization logic that manual reviews often miss.
04
Missing Initial Ownership
Scans for contracts where critical administrative functions (e.g., onlyOwner) are accessible before an owner is assigned, leaving the contract uncontrollable.
05
Inheritance Order Vulnerabilities
Analyzes the linearization of multiple inherited contracts to detect shadowed functions and incorrect super() calls that break initialization sequences.
06
Front-Runnable Initializations
Identifies initialization functions that lack access controls or are vulnerable to MEV bots, preventing malicious actors from hijacking contract setup.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear answers on how our automated smart contract security scanner works, its integration, and the value it delivers.
Our scanner performs a comprehensive static analysis targeting initialization-related risks in upgradeable smart contracts. It specifically detects:
- Missing or unprotected initialization functions that could allow re-initialization attacks.
- Storage layout conflicts between implementation versions that can corrupt data.
- Constructor vs. initializer misuse in proxy patterns (e.g., UUPS, Transparent).
- Unsafe delegatecall usage within initialization that could lead to self-destruct or storage hijacking.
- Compliance with best practices from OpenZeppelin's Upgrades Plugins. It integrates checks for over 20 specific vulnerability patterns related to contract setup and upgrades.
