Proven Expertise in Action

We don't just talk about security; we deliver it. Explore how we've helped our clients protect their assets and build resilient decentralized platforms.

Securing a Multi-Million Dollar Lending Protocol

Industry: Decentralized Finance (DeFi)

Client Overview: A rapidly growing DeFi protocol offering lending and borrowing services with over $50M in Total Value Locked (TVL). They needed to ensure the absolute security of user funds before launching their v2 platform and expanding to new chains.

"Errna's audit was incredibly thorough. They found a critical vulnerability in our price oracle logic that could have been catastrophic. Their team felt like a true extension of ours, providing clear guidance that allowed us to patch and deploy with confidence."

- Alex Royce, CTO, InnovateFi

The Challenge

The client's primary concern was protecting their platform from economic exploits, particularly flash loan attacks and price oracle manipulation, which have plagued the DeFi space. They needed a security partner who understood not just the code, but the complex financial incentives at play.

Key Challenges:

  • Securing complex interest rate calculation logic.
  • Preventing manipulation of asset prices from external oracles.
  • Ensuring the liquidation mechanism was both fair and resistant to attack.
  • Hardening the governance module to prevent malicious proposals.

Our Solution

We conducted a multi-faceted security audit combining automated scanning, manual code review, and economic modeling.

Our approach included:

  • A line-by-line review of all 25 smart contracts in the protocol.
  • Simulating various flash loan attack scenarios to test the protocol's resilience.
  • Analyzing the oracle design for potential manipulation vectors and recommending a more robust, decentralized data feed.
  • Providing detailed reports with risk-prioritized findings and actionable code-level recommendations for remediation.

Hardening a High-Volume NFT Marketplace

Industry: Web3 / Digital Collectibles

Client Overview: A leading NFT marketplace preparing for a major new collection drop from a high-profile artist. They needed to ensure their platform could handle massive traffic securely and protect users from common NFT scams and wallet-draining attacks.

"The security of our users is paramount. Errna's penetration test gave us the peace of mind we needed. They identified weaknesses in our off-chain signature validation that could have put user assets at risk. We now consider them our go-to security partner for all future launches."

- Amelia Norton, Founder, ArtBlock

The Challenge

The marketplace's success depended on user trust. They needed to go beyond a standard smart contract audit and test their entire platform—from the front-end minting process to their off-chain order book—against real-world attack vectors.

Key Challenges:

  • Protecting users from malicious signatures that could drain their wallets.
  • Ensuring the minting process was fair and resistant to bots.
  • Securing the API that connected the front-end to the blockchain.
  • Preventing counterfeit NFTs from being listed on the platform.

Our Solution

We performed a comprehensive dApp penetration test, focusing on the user journey and the interaction between on-chain and off-chain components.

Our approach included:

  • A full audit of their marketplace, minting, and staking smart contracts.
  • Security testing of their front-end application to identify vulnerabilities like Cross-Site Scripting (XSS).
  • A review of their off-chain signature validation process (EIP-712) to prevent phishing.
  • Load testing and analysis of their anti-bot measures for the upcoming mint.

Ensuring Data Integrity for an Enterprise Supply Chain Network

Industry: Logistics & Manufacturing

Client Overview: A Fortune 500 manufacturing company implementing a private, permissioned blockchain (Hyperledger Fabric) to track high-value goods through their global supply chain. They required a robust security framework to ensure data integrity and control access among various partners.

"Moving to blockchain was a huge step for us. Errna's team was instrumental in helping us design a secure architecture. Their expertise in permissioned networks and identity management was critical to getting buy-in from our partners and ensuring the integrity of our supply chain data."

- Carter Fleming, VP of Operations, Global-Mfg

The Challenge

The client needed to ensure that only authorized participants could write data to the ledger and that the data, once written, was immutable and tamper-proof. The security model had to be robust enough to satisfy the compliance requirements of multiple international partners.

Key Challenges:

  • Designing a secure and scalable identity and access management (IAM) system.
  • Hardening the configuration of the Hyperledger Fabric nodes and network.
  • Securing the chaincode (smart contracts) against logic flaws.
  • Ensuring the privacy of sensitive commercial data between participants.

Our Solution

We provided end-to-end security consulting, from architectural design to post-deployment testing for their Hyperledger Fabric network.

Our approach included:

  • A thorough review of the network architecture and IAM design.
  • A security audit of the chaincode to identify and fix vulnerabilities.
  • Penetration testing of the network nodes and APIs to simulate attacks from malicious insiders and external threats.
  • Developing a comprehensive security policy and governance framework for all network participants.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions? We have answers. Here are some of the most common inquiries we receive about our Web3 security services.

What is the difference between a smart contract audit and a penetration test?

A smart contract audit is a deep, line-by-line analysis of the contract's code to find vulnerabilities and logic errors. A penetration test is broader; it simulates real-world attacks on your entire application (dApp, APIs, nodes) to see how the components interact and where weaknesses can be exploited. We recommend both for comprehensive security.

How long does a typical security audit take?

The duration depends on the complexity and size of the codebase. A simple ERC-20 token might take a few days, while a complex DeFi protocol with multiple contracts can take 2 to 4 weeks or more. We provide a detailed timeline estimate after an initial review of your project.

Which blockchains and languages do you support?

We have extensive experience with EVM-compatible chains like Ethereum, Polygon, and BSC, and languages like Solidity and Vyper. We also have expertise in other ecosystems like Solana (Rust), Cosmos (Go), and enterprise platforms like Hyperledger Fabric. Our team is constantly expanding its expertise to cover new and emerging technologies.

What do we receive at the end of an audit?

You will receive a comprehensive report detailing all findings, categorized by severity (Critical, High, Medium, Low, Informational). Each finding includes a technical description of the vulnerability, its potential impact, and clear, actionable recommendations for remediation, often with code examples. After you've patched the issues, we perform a verification check and can issue a public audit certificate.

How do you handle the disclosure of critical vulnerabilities?

We follow a responsible disclosure policy. All critical vulnerabilities are communicated to your team immediately through a secure, private channel. We work closely with you to ensure the issue is understood and can be patched before it is included in any final or public report. Client confidentiality and security are our top priorities.

Can you help us after the audit is complete?

Absolutely. We view security as an ongoing partnership. We offer retainer services for continuous monitoring, security consulting for new features, and 24/7 incident response. Our goal is to be your long-term security partner as your project grows and evolves.
