Privacy-Preserving Voting Audit | Chainscore Labs

overview

CORE INFRASTRUCTURE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, gas-optimized smart contracts built for production from day one.

We architect and deploy custom smart contracts that form the immutable logic layer of your application. Our development process is built for security and efficiency, delivering production-ready code in 2-4 weeks for an MVP.

Security-First Design: Contracts are built with OpenZeppelin libraries and undergo rigorous internal audits before deployment.
Gas Optimization: Every line is written for cost efficiency, reducing user transaction fees by up to 40%.
Full-Stack Integration: We ensure seamless interaction with your frontend via ethers.js/web3.js and provide comprehensive testing suites.

We don't just write code; we deliver the foundational business logic that handles real value, securely and reliably.

Our expertise spans all major standards and use cases:

Tokens & NFTs: Custom ERC-20, ERC-721, and ERC-1155 implementations with advanced features like staking, vesting, and dynamic metadata.
DeFi Protocols: Development of automated market makers (AMMs), lending/borrowing pools, and yield aggregators.
Governance Systems: DAO frameworks with proposal, voting, and treasury management modules using Governor standards.

PROVEN FRAMEWORK

Our Specialized Audit Methodology

Our multi-layered approach combines automated analysis with deep manual review to identify critical vulnerabilities in privacy-preserving voting logic, ensuring protocol integrity and user trust.

Architecture & Specification Review

We begin by analyzing your protocol's design and whitepaper to identify logical flaws, incentive misalignments, and privacy leakage risks before a single line of code is reviewed.

Coverage

Phase 1

Foundation

Automated Vulnerability Scanning

Leveraging industry-leading tools like Slither and Foundry, we perform static and dynamic analysis to detect common vulnerabilities (reentrancy, overflows) and gas inefficiencies.

SECURITY FIRST

Why a Specialized Audit is Critical

Generic audits miss the unique cryptographic and game-theoretic vulnerabilities of privacy-preserving protocols. Our specialized approach delivers the depth and rigor your project demands.

Cryptographic Protocol Review

We audit the core zero-knowledge proofs, ring signatures, or homomorphic encryption implementations for soundness, ensuring your privacy guarantees are mathematically secure.

EXPLORE

Vote Privacy & Anonymity Set Analysis

We model and test for deanonymization attacks, linkability risks, and entropy flaws that could expose voter identity or voting patterns, a critical failure for any private voting system.

Incentive & Game Theory Security

We analyze the economic mechanisms for collusion, bribery (e.g., vote buying), and protocol manipulation, ensuring the system remains secure against rational adversaries.

EXPLORE

Front-Running & MEV Resistance

We identify and remediate vulnerabilities where the order or timing of transactions could be exploited to influence vote outcomes or extract value, protecting protocol integrity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Get clear answers about our specialized audit process for zero-knowledge and confidential voting systems.

We employ a four-phase audit methodology tailored for cryptographic voting systems: 1) Architecture & Threat Modeling to identify privacy and coercion attack vectors. 2) Cryptographic Review of ZK-SNARKs/STARKs, homomorphic encryption, and MPC implementations. 3) Smart Contract & Logic Audit for on-chain components handling encrypted ballots or proofs. 4) End-to-End System Testing simulating real-world voter behavior and adversarial conditions. Our process is based on standards from NIST IR 8312 and academic literature on secure e-voting.
