COMPREHENSIVE SECURITY AUDIT
What We Assess in Your Emergency Systems
Our technical assessment systematically evaluates the resilience and security of your DAO's emergency mechanisms, ensuring they function as intended under duress without introducing new attack vectors.

SECURING YOUR LAST LINE OF DEFENSE
Why a Specialized Emergency Mechanism Audit is Critical
Standard smart contract audits often miss the unique complexities of emergency mechanisms. Our specialized assessment focuses exclusively on the logic, access control, and failure modes of your DAO's most critical safety systems.
01
Protocol-Wide Risk Assessment
We map the entire attack surface of your emergency pause, upgrade, and recovery systems, identifying single points of failure that could lock funds or be exploited by malicious actors.

Access Control & Privilege Escalation
Deep analysis of multi-sig timelocks, governance overrides, and role-based permissions to prevent unauthorized activation or permanent locking of emergency states.

Post-Emergency Recovery Validation
Ensuring your protocol can safely resume operations after an emergency is halted. We test state reconciliation, user fund safety, and system re-initialization paths.

Frequently Asked Questions on Emergency Mechanism Audits
Get clear answers on our process, timeline, and security methodology for assessing and hardening your DAO's emergency mechanisms.
A standard assessment for a single emergency mechanism (e.g., a pause guardian or timelock override) takes 7-10 business days from kickoff to final report delivery. Complex multi-mechanism systems or those integrated with custom governance modules may extend to 2-3 weeks. We provide a fixed timeline proposal after our initial scoping call.
