ChainSecurity

ChainSecurity stands at the intersection of academic research, formal verification, and real-world protocol engineering. Since its founding, it has built a track record of trusted audit partnerships with major names in the blockchain space. These include in-depth audits of protocols like Compound III, MakerDAO’s Liquidations 2.0, Enzyme Sulu Extensions, Liquity V2, and Mellow Multivault. Each report not only identifies vulnerabilities but also delivers clear recommendations grounded in deep technical understanding.

What makes ChainSecurity especially unique is its rigorous methodology rooted in formal verification—a mathematical approach that ensures the correctness of code beyond traditional testing. This makes ChainSecurity the go-to auditor for protocols dealing with stablecoins, zero-knowledge proofs, restaking systems, and derivatives platforms. Whether it’s for high-volume DeFi applications or cutting-edge privacy protocols, ChainSecurity brings the same level of care and scrutiny.

As a research-oriented security firm, ChainSecurity also contributes to the broader blockchain community through blog posts, vulnerability disclosures, and ecosystem-wide education. Articles such as “Merkle Mountain Range: the case of Herodotus” and “TSTORE Low Gas Reentrancy” showcase the depth of technical engagement provided to the public. Their experts regularly explore Ethereum protocol changes like EIP-1153 and release tools and guidelines for developers.

ChainSecurity’s core competitors include firms like Trail of Bits, Consensys Diligence, Certik, and OpenZeppelin. Yet, what sets ChainSecurity apart is its precision-driven, academically grounded, and context-aware auditing approach that aligns perfectly with the evolving demands of Web3 infrastructure.

ChainSecurity provides a suite of expert-driven auditing and security features that make it a cornerstone in the Web3 ecosystem:

• Formal Verification: Unlike standard audits, ChainSecurity applies mathematical proofs to ensure contract behavior aligns with expected logic—ideal for critical DeFi protocols and central bank applications.
• Industry-Leading Expertise: The team includes PhD-level engineers and security researchers with backgrounds in Ethereum core development, cryptography, and academic security research.
• High-Impact Audit Portfolio: ChainSecurity has audited major protocols like Compound III, MakerDAO, Curve, and Enzyme, setting the gold standard in audit quality.
• Focused on Innovation: The firm continuously publishes research on Ethereum upgrades, ZK systems, and EVM changes, helping clients stay ahead of the curve.
• Structured Reporting: Every audit includes an overview of findings, technical analysis, security severity rankings, and suggested fixes—delivered in a clear, developer-friendly format.
• Reputation-Based Trust: Clients consistently praise ChainSecurity for its depth of analysis, reliability, and ability to adapt to evolving specs or project goals.
