OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

We hired Blockchain Consilium for their expertise in the decentralized application (dApp) space as some of our applications include blockchain digital assets and our dApps being customer-facing needed to be audited for security reasons.

SOLUTION

Blockchain Consilium was referred to us by our trusted partners. Also looking over their previous customers and references we know were trusted by the cryptocurrency and blockchain industry

Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.

Our AR platform including both tokens and dApps. Both smart contracts needed to be reviewed and audited. Our smart contract use multiple chains and needed to be reviewed together to give individual audits and comparison audits to make our multiple smart contracts uniform in evaluation

How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

The entire service was a turn key solution. So we did not go into detail on resources used for the audit, however we received our audits timely manner and faster then expected.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

The audits were professional and we were able to get referred on the site too under the customer section. It included many insights where we can share the results openly with our partners and customers.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Blockchain smart contract audits are important for our line of business as the technology is very new and finding audit services found to be difficult. Blockchain Consilium was able to respond, get back to us quickly, and answer any of our questions. Payment and service delivery was smooth.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

The most impressive fact was that the level of detail in the smart contract audits and the description describing each component or function of the smart contract. What was great was that we were also able to use the test nets as a sampling of features for our smart contracts.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Blockchain Consilium has done a great job and I think there is more for us to learn from them. We appreciate their help and hope to work with them again and refer them to our friends.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm the owner of a blockchain startup that is exploring decentralized finance solution for the masses using Blockchain Technology.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Blockchain Consilium?

We were looking for an external cybersecurity company to perform an annual security audit of our smart contracts and decentralized applications. Because smart contracts are immutable and blockchain handles trustless transactions as a ledger, we needed to make sure there were no potential attack vectors and that all the industry best practices were followed ensuring good security of our systems.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

We searched online for cybersecurity firms on the internet and shortlisted 5. After interviewing them, we chose this vendor based on their service package and experience, also their response time was amazing and they're able to move faster and quickly and easily able to manage their team size.

Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.

They performed a thorough security audit of our smart contracts and dApps, identifying potential risks in our infrastructure. They used slither, trufflesuite and surya, among other tools, to scan for vulnerabilities. After they finished, they delivered a report on all of our risks and provided a list of security recommendations. We have implemented those changes and we're glad we were able to secure our systems with Blockchain Consilium.

How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

We had a project manager, 3 security analysts, and a smart contract domain expert & tester.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

They were able to identify far more risks than our internal tests could, and their team has provided improvement suggestions and detailed steps for fixing along with consulting our developers. Not only were they thorough, but they also took the time to teach us additional cybersecurity & smart contract best practices.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

They kept us updated as they went through each round of testing, and their reports were easy to understand. Weekly check-ins on Telegram helped us stay on schedule.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

It's impressive how this company has supported the top players in the space with their security auditing services, and their response time and professional communication are the best among all other alternative vendors we came across. Also, we appreciate that they offered multiple alternative solutions to suit our budget. That way, we could better prioritize how we spent our money.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Some of the testings took longer than we expected, but their in-depth process paid off in the end.
