Smart contracts on blockchain platforms are immutable once deployed โ a vulnerability discovered after deployment cannot simply be patched like a web application. This makes pre-deployment security auditing critical. Smart contract security auditing covers: reentrancy vulnerabilities (the class of bug behind some of the largest DeFi exploits), integer overflow/underflow, access control flaws, logic errors in financial calculations, front-running vulnerabilities, oracle manipulation, gas optimisation issues that create security risks, and economic attack vectors specific to DeFi protocols. Auditing requires deep understanding of the specific blockchain platform (Ethereum/Solidity, Solana/Rust) and the financial mechanisms the contract implements.
