Development Lab

Assurance is a list of ways the system can lose something.

We review keys, upgrades, pause powers and the boundary between a contract and the ordinary systems around it. The output is a findings note. It is not an audit badge and it is not a guarantee.

Scope

Trust boundaries, admin ceremony, upgrade and pause, and what a failure can move. A smart contract is one component. Most losses also involve a person, a key or an integration.
