Smart Contract Security Audits

Comprehensive smart contract audit services to identify vulnerabilities, protect users, and strengthen protocol security across Web3 ecosystems including Ethereum, Starknet, and beyond. Nethermind Security offers rigorous code reviews and formal audits for protocols across multiple blockchain platforms, including specialized audits for zero-knowledge proof systems and ZK-based protocols.

Audit Coverage

The service covers Solidity and EVM audits specializing in DeFi protocols, NFT contracts, DEXs, and more within the Ethereum ecosystem. Rust and Solana audits provide comprehensive reviews for Solana-based applications ensuring optimal performance and security. Cairo and Starknet audits leverage deep ecosystem expertise as core contributors, supporting DeFi protocols, bridges, and infrastructure. Zero-knowledge (zk) and Noir audits provide specialized reviews for ZK-based protocols, ZK circuits, zk-SNARKs, zk-STARKs ensuring soundness, circuit correctness, completeness verification, and performance. AI security audits offer threat modeling and security evaluations for AI-powered applications. Web2 system audits provide comprehensive reviews of traditional web systems interfacing with blockchain infrastructure. Off-chain component audits assess the security of APIs, databases, and critical infrastructure.

Proven Track Record

Over 1 million lines of code audited since 2022, with 1,700+ vulnerabilities identified in Cairo and Solidity smart contracts. 92% of suggested remedies are immediately implemented by clients. The team has audited leading projects including Lido's Accounting zk-Oracle, USPD's Multi-Stabilizer Protocol, SAMM Protocol, Puffer Finance, Pragma, Ether.fi, Worldcoin, Polygon ID, and Gyroscope.

Agile Methodology

Nethermind adopts an agile approach with regular sync calls, transparent reporting throughout the audit process, and partial reports delivered during the audit to reduce idle development time. Clients can implement code corrections while the audit is still in progress. The service includes manual code review, automated static analysis, dynamic testing, vulnerability assessment reports, and remediation guidance.

Team Excellence

40% of team members hold Ph.D.s with 145+ published articles in world-class conferences and journals, accumulating 1,300+ citations in Google Scholar in Computer Networks, Artificial Intelligence, and Software Engineering fields. Senior engineers have one decade of teaching experience in Computer Science.
