What is a dApp Smart Contract Audit?
Decentralized applications, dApps, are software programs that run on a peer-to-peer network of computers and utilize the underlying blockchain technology.The most popular platform for building dApps is Ethereum. An audit helps with the performance, reliability and security of the application. During a smart contract audit, our team of skilled auditors will examine the logic, architecture, and security measures of the application to identify any potential issues using both automated and manual processes. We are a pioneering DeFi smart contract security auditing company that has bolstered the trust of our clients in the DeFi system. Our prolific team of auditors has proven experience conducting comprehensive audits comprising static and run-time analyses and reviews on gas optimization.
dApp Smart Contract Audit Stages
We have a dedicated panel of blockchain security experts who conduct the audit process systematically and step-by-step. Following are the stages that we have in our dApp audit process.
1. Pre-Requisites
The first step involves analyzing the essential documents required for the audit process and analyzing them. These include documents like BRD, GitHub links, whitepapers, and all the other technical specifications. It assists the auditors in analyzing the intended function of the application they are reviewing.
2. Automated Analysis and Unit Testing
The next phase involves the auditors writing custom unit test cases specific to the smart contract and performing test runs on those unit test cases, along with the test suite provided by the developers. Also, our security auditors deploy automated audit tools such as Slither, Echidna and Mythril to catch the vulnerabilities on the surface level.
3. Manual Auditing
At ImmuneBytes, manual analysis is the most crucial step in the audit process. In this step, our team of auditors check the vulnerabilities in the code by scanning the whole code line-by-line. Our auditors examine the code for logical bugs and run your code against the fuzzing test suite. The auditors recommend addressing the found vulnerabilities and code optimization based on the performance.
4. Reporting
The last and final stage of the dApp security audit process can be classified into initial and final reporting. First, our auditors include their recommendations and the detected bugs in the initial reporting. Here, we classify them based on their severity level. After initial reporting, the developers refactor the code based on the recommendations from our auditors in the initial reporting and the final audit report is generated.

Why Is dApp Security Audit So Important?
Web3 is not only limited to the Web but also occupies mobile devices. Decentralized applications are everywhere these days. However, developers often overlook the security parameters during DApp development. Since DApps are an off-chain component of the system, it makes them a lucrative target for hackers. Applications like Wallets, Marketplaces, GameFi, DEXs, etc., are always watched by hackers for any deceivable feature.

Why Choose Us?
We are a crew of experienced auditors who have been in this industry for quite some time. We have evolved as one of the leading token smart contract audit companies. We do our best to help our clients eliminate the fear of losing access to their funds or applications.
Extensive Audit Report
Our audit reports are comprehensive and document every measure taken during the audit process. We classify the vulnerabilities according to their severity levels and offer remediations and code optimizations.
Check For 100+ Vulnerabilities
We analyze a smart contract for over a hundred vulnerabilities. These include bugs that have been exploited and others that could be exploited in the future.
Smart Contract Fuzzing
We fuzz-test your smart contracts as an additional measure. Fuzzing a smart contract ensures that it will not behave unexpectedly against any given input, minimizing the risk of hacks.
Post Refactor Reaudits
Not just once, we audit your code twice! Once your developers review our audit report and make the recommended fixes, we again analyze your contract and prepare the final audit report.
Security Test Cases
Our auditors use frameworks like Foundry, HardHat and Truffle to write unit test cases other than the developers provided. We ensure to traverse every possible branch of execution in the source code.
Quick Turnaround Time
A dedicated team of auditors is assigned to your project, who usually take 3-10 days to complete an audit, depending on the code size. We are result-oriented and understand the gravity of deadlines.
