What Our ZK-Rollup Review Covers
Our expert-led review delivers a deep technical assessment of your ZK-Rollup's core components, providing actionable insights to mitigate risk and ensure production readiness.
Circuit Logic & Implementation
In-depth analysis of your zero-knowledge circuit code (e.g., Circom, Halo2, Noir) for logical correctness, soundness, and optimal constraint system design.
Verifier Contract Security
Rigorous audit of the on-chain verifier smart contract (Solidity/Vyper) for vulnerabilities, gas efficiency, and correct proof verification logic.
Cryptographic Assumptions & Primitives
Evaluation of the underlying cryptographic libraries (e.g., elliptic curves, hash functions) for correct usage and adherence to established security standards.
Integration & Upgrade Safety
Assessment of the rollup's integration with L1, bridge contracts, and sequencer/prover components, including safe upgrade paths and pause mechanisms.
Economic & Incentive Analysis
Review of the system's economic model, including prover/sequencer incentives, fee mechanisms, and slashing conditions for long-term sustainability.
Final Report & Remediation Support
Receive a detailed technical report with severity-ranked findings, proof-of-concept exploits, and direct consultation with our engineers to guide fixes.
Why a Specialized ZK Audit is Critical
Generic smart contract audits miss the unique complexities of zero-knowledge systems. Our specialized review targets the mathematical soundness and cryptographic assumptions that underpin your rollup's security and performance.
Circuit Logic & Soundness
We verify the mathematical correctness of your ZK circuits, ensuring they accurately encode your business logic and produce valid proofs for all correct inputs and none for incorrect ones.
Cryptographic Assumptions
We audit the underlying cryptographic primitives (e.g., elliptic curves, hash functions) and their implementation for vulnerabilities, side-channel attacks, and adherence to established security standards.
Verifier Contract Security
In-depth review of the on-chain verifier smart contract, focusing on gas optimization, reentrancy risks, and correct proof verification to prevent fraudulent state transitions.
Prover Efficiency & Trust
We analyze the prover implementation for performance bottlenecks and potential trust issues, ensuring fast, reliable proof generation without compromising security.
Integration & Edge Cases
Comprehensive testing of the rollup's integration with L1, including bridge contracts, fraud proofs (if applicable), and handling of network congestion or chain reorganizations.
Formal Verification Readiness
We structure our audit findings to provide a clear path for formal verification, giving you and your users the highest possible assurance of system correctness.

ZK-Rollup Security Review FAQs
Get specific answers on our methodology, timeline, and deliverables for securing your ZK-Rollup's core logic.
We follow a structured, three-phase approach: 1) Architecture & Specification Review to assess design against ZK-Rollup best practices. 2) Circuit & Verifier Code Audit using static analysis, manual review, and formal verification tools to find logic flaws, soundness errors, and gas inefficiencies. 3) Integration & Adversarial Testing to verify on-chain verifier deployment and simulate attack vectors. We benchmark against standards from Ethereum Foundation research and major L2 teams.
