Before the audit

Audit Readiness & Integration

Preparing for a Successful Engagement

To ensure the highest level of security and efficiency, AuditOne requires projects to reach a "Code Freeze" state before the audit begins. Auditing an evolving codebase is counterproductive, as new commits can introduce vulnerabilities into previously validated segments.

Our Readiness Standards:

• Finalized Codebase: All development must be completed or the final commit hash provided.

• Code Freeze: No further changes should be made during the active audit period.

• Test Coverage: We expect protocols to have comprehensive test suites in place to validate core functionalities.

We offer full flexibility during this preparation phase; no deposit is required to reserve your auditing window. If your team is uncertain about the specific scope or architecture requiring review, our lead auditors will provide strategic guidance during the Project Kickoff Meeting.

Deep Dive: How to Prepare for a Successful Audit

Collaborative Communication via Discord

Transparency and real-time communication are central to our methodology. Upon payment of the deposit, we establish a dedicated, secure AuditOne Discord Channel to bridge the gap between your developers and our auditor pools.

This direct line of communication facilitates:

• Rapid Clarification: Auditors can query logic directly, reducing the time spent on false positives.

• Technical Knowledge Transfer: Your developers gain insights into security best practices through a healthy back-and-forth.

• Agile Remediation: Receive immediate feedback during the fix phase to ensure vulnerabilities are correctly mitigated.
