overview
RELIABLE FOUNDATION

Blockchain Infrastructure

Enterprise-grade node infrastructure and RPC services with 99.9% uptime SLA.

We manage the heavy lifting of blockchain infrastructure so your team can focus on product innovation. Our fully-managed services eliminate the operational overhead of running nodes in-house.

  • Multi-Chain RPC Access: High-performance endpoints for Ethereum, Polygon, Solana, and Avalanche with dedicated rate limits.
  • Guaranteed Uptime: 99.9% SLA backed by geo-redundant architecture and 24/7 monitoring.
  • Enhanced APIs: Access historical data, real-time logs, and debug traces beyond standard JSON-RPC.

Deploy production-ready infrastructure in hours, not weeks, with enterprise-grade security and predictable, transparent pricing.

PROVEN SECURITY VALIDATION

Our DEX-Specific Attack Simulations

We don't just audit code; we simulate real-world attacks on your DEX's unique architecture. Our adversarial testing identifies the financial logic flaws and economic attack vectors that generic audits miss, protecting your liquidity and your users' funds.

01

Flash Loan Attack Simulation

We replicate complex multi-protocol arbitrage and price manipulation attacks to test your pool's resilience against sudden, large-scale capital movements. Identifies vulnerabilities in oracle reliance and swap fee logic.

A PROVEN, PHASED APPROACH

Our Methodology: From Reconnaissance to Remediation

Our systematic penetration testing framework is designed to identify, exploit, and document vulnerabilities in your DEX liquidity pools, providing actionable intelligence to secure your assets and user funds.

01

Phase 1: Reconnaissance & Scoping

We conduct a comprehensive audit of your smart contracts (AMM logic, fee structures, oracle integrations) and the surrounding ecosystem to define the attack surface. This includes analyzing governance mechanisms, admin keys, and external dependencies.

Code Coverage
< 48 hrs

Phase 2: Threat Modeling & Exploit Simulation

Our experts simulate real-world attacks: flash loan manipulations, price oracle exploits, reentrancy on pool logic, and governance takeovers. We test edge cases for concentrated liquidity (Uniswap V3) and multi-hop arbitrage paths.

Phase 3: In-Depth Vulnerability Analysis

We perform manual code review and automated analysis using Slither, MythX, and custom tooling to identify critical flaws—from math errors in bonding curves to access control bypasses. Findings are prioritized by CVSS scores.

Phase 4: Proof-of-Concept & Impact Assessment

For every critical finding, we develop a working Proof-of-Concept exploit on a forked mainnet (using Foundry/Hardhat) to demonstrate the exact financial impact, including potential fund loss and protocol insolvency scenarios.

DEX Penetration Testing FAQs

Get clear answers on our security assessment process for decentralized exchange liquidity pools, designed for CTOs and protocol leads.

We employ a hybrid methodology combining automated scanning with deep manual review. Our process includes: 1) Architecture Review of the AMM math, fee structures, and governance mechanisms. 2) Smart Contract Analysis using static analysis (Slither, MythX) and dynamic testing in forked mainnet environments. 3) Economic Attack Simulation modeling flash loan attacks, sandwich attacks, MEV exploitation, and liquidity manipulation. 4) Integration Testing for oracle dependencies, cross-chain bridges, and front-end interfaces. This approach is based on our experience securing over $500M+ in TVL across 50+ DeFi projects.
