Infrastructure Penetration Testing

Quantstamp's Infrastructure Penetration Testing service provides comprehensive security assessments for Web3 infrastructure components. This service addresses the critical reality that Web3 consists of smart contracts AND the Web2 architecture around them - a single misconfigured server, API, or cloud component can undermine even the most secure smart contracts.

Scope of Testing

The service covers multiple infrastructure components:

API Security Testing

Identifying vulnerabilities in blockchain node APIs, indexing services, and other Web3 backend systems.

Browser Extensions

Security review of wallet extensions and other Web3 browser tools that handle sensitive user data and private keys.

Cloud Infrastructure

Assessment of cloud configurations, access controls, and security posture for blockchain node operators and Web3 platforms.

Mobile Applications

Security testing for mobile wallets, DeFi apps, and other blockchain-connected mobile applications.

Web Applications

Comprehensive testing of dApp frontends and administrative interfaces.

Methodology

The service combines automated scanning with manual penetration testing techniques performed by experienced security engineers. This approach ensures both broad coverage and deep analysis of complex vulnerabilities.

Compliance Benefits

Infrastructure penetration testing complements ISO 27001 and SOC 2 compliance efforts, helping organizations demonstrate a higher standard of security. Node operators who complete a Quantstamp infrastructure audit can secure Verified Staking Provider (VSP) Pro status on Staking Rewards.

Target Clients

Ideal for validators, node operators, SaaS platforms, cloud providers, API services, and any organization with critical Web3 off-chain infrastructure components.
