Match the stack
We pick researchers who already live in your environment: EVM, Cosmos, Solana, or multi-chain infra — so onboarding time stays short.
TEAM
Core team and Researchers
All reviews are carried out by a curated team of the industry's top-performing security researchers, selected for your specific codebase and budget. We also hire auditors for specific projects.
Research first. Matched to your stack. Accountable end to end.
How we staff your audit
Every engagement gets a lead plus reviewers who fit the codebase, language, and threat model — not a random bench assignment.
Lead + reviewers
A named lead owns the engagement. Additional researchers join for depth, coverage, and independent challenge on high-risk paths.
Extended bench
When scope spikes, we pull trusted contest researchers into the same engagement — still under Shred process and review standards.
Direct channel
You talk to the people reading the code. Architecture questions and fix reviews go through the same researchers on your engagement.
