overview
SECURE, AUDITED CODE

Smart Contract Development

Production-ready smart contracts built with enterprise-grade security and gas optimization.

We architect and deploy secure Solidity and Rust smart contracts for DeFi, NFTs, and enterprise applications. Every contract undergoes rigorous security audits and formal verification to protect your assets and users.

Deliver a secure, audited MVP in 2-4 weeks with a fixed-price scope.

  • Gas-Optimized Code: Reduce user transaction costs by up to 40% with expert optimization patterns.
  • Comprehensive Testing: Full coverage with unit, integration, and fork tests on Hardhat or Foundry.
  • Proven Standards: Built on OpenZeppelin libraries with custom logic for ERC-20, ERC-721, and ERC-1155 standards.

MULTI-LAYER SECURITY

Comprehensive Audit Coverage

Our proof system audits deliver more than a checklist. We provide a deep, multi-faceted security assessment designed to uncover critical vulnerabilities and provide actionable, engineering-ready remediation.

01

Core Protocol & Circuit Logic

In-depth review of your zero-knowledge circuits (Plonk, Groth16, Halo2) and cryptographic primitives for soundness, completeness, and correctness. We identify logic flaws that could compromise the entire system's security guarantees.

02

Implementation & Side-Channels

Analysis of the codebase (Rust, C++, Circom) for implementation bugs, timing attacks, and memory safety issues. We ensure your prover/verifier is resilient against real-world exploitation.

Trusted Setup & Parameter Security

Verification of trusted setup ceremonies, parameter generation, and SRS (Structured Reference String) integrity. We assess the risks of toxic waste and ensure setup contributions are properly validated.

04

Integration & Adversarial Testing

Testing the proof system within the full application stack (L2 rollups, privacy apps). We simulate malicious actors and edge cases to break integration assumptions and API boundaries.

BEYOND STANDARD SMART CONTRACT REVIEWS

Why a Specialized Proof System Audit is Critical

Zero-knowledge and validity proof systems introduce unique, mathematically complex vulnerabilities that generic audits miss. Our specialized review is engineered to secure the core cryptographic integrity of your protocol.

CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built for scale and compliance.

We architect and deploy audited, gas-optimized contracts on EVM chains like Ethereum, Arbitrum, and Polygon. Our development process ensures zero critical vulnerabilities and adherence to standards like ERC-20, ERC-721, and ERC-1155.

  • End-to-End Lifecycle: From specification and Solidity/Vyper development to deployment and upgrade management.
  • Security-First: Formal verification, unit/integration testing, and audits with firms like CertiK or OpenZeppelin.
  • Gas Optimization: Reduce user transaction costs by 20-40% through efficient code patterns and storage strategies.

Deploy a secure, mainnet-ready contract suite in as little as 2-4 weeks, backed by a 99.9% uptime SLA for critical functions.

Technical & Process Questions

Proof System Audit FAQs

Get clear answers on our methodology, timeline, and deliverables for securing your zero-knowledge or validity proof infrastructure.

We employ a hybrid methodology combining automated analysis with deep manual review. Our process includes: 1) Formal verification of cryptographic primitives using tools like Circomspect and custom SMT solvers. 2) Manual line-by-line review of circuit logic, focusing on soundness, completeness, and zero-knowledge properties. 3) Integration testing to verify prover/verifier consistency and gas optimization. 4) Adversarial thinking sessions to model potential attacks on trusted setups or recursive proofs. This multi-layered approach has secured over $2B+ in TVL across 30+ zk projects.
