Overview
Introduction
OpenAudits by Blabs is the dedicated audit and verification arm of Blabs, established to provide independent, transparent, and production-grade security assessments for Web3 applications and protocols. OpenAudits extends Blabs’ engineering-first approach into protocol assurance, ensuring that systems built for decentralization are secure, economically sound, and verifiable on-chain.
OpenAudits applies a structured, engineering-driven audit framework that evaluates smart contract security, system architecture reliability, economic model integrity, and real-world on-chain behavior. With a strong emphasis on open audit disclosures, OpenAudits is designed to help teams demonstrate trust, readiness, and transparency to users, partners, and the broader ecosystem.
Getting Started
B-Labs OpenAudits are suitable for:
Decentralized applications (DApps)
Smart contract protocols
Token and economic systems
Infrastructure and middleware projects
Protocol upgrades and migrations
Audits are recommended prior to:
Mainnet deployment
Token launches
Fundraising rounds
Strategic partnerships
Public usage at scale
Audit Services
Vulnerability detection and mitigation
Access control and permission modeling
Execution flow and state validation
Fee and revenue logic verification
Token issuance and emission review
Incentive alignment and manipulation resistance
On-chain vs off-chain computation checks
Data provenance and state accuracy
Centralization risk assessment
Web3-native architecture validation
Audit Methodology
B-Labs applies a structured Three-Tier Verification Framework designed to deliver comprehensive assurance across security, functionality, and real-world protocol performance.
Tier 1: Static Analysis
Automated scans are performed using Slither, Mythril, and proprietary B-Labs detection systems to identify common vulnerabilities, unsafe patterns, and code inefficiencies.
Tier 2: Manual Forensic Review
Security engineers perform a line-by-line review of the codebase to validate business logic correctness, review access controls and permissions, analyze edge-case handling, and assess protocol behavior under adversarial conditions.
Tier 3: On-Chain Back-Testing
Live and historical blockchain data is analyzed using Artemis and Dune to ensure deployed contract behavior aligns with expected logic, economic outcomes, and transparency standards.
Audit Deliverables
Each audit includes a comprehensive report covering:
Security Findings
Categorized vulnerabilities by severity
Clear remediation guidance
Fix verification (where applicable)
Economic & Integrity Assessment
Revenue and fee model validation
Tokenomics consistency checks
Abuse and manipulation risk analysis
Transparency & Readiness
On-chain data verification
Centralization risk review
Production deployment readiness assessment.
Project Integrity & Security Report
Each audit report documents:
Team Information
Disclosure status (public or pseudonymous)
Role separation and privileged access review
Platforms & Infrastructure
Blockchain networks
RPCs, indexers, and external dependencies
Smart Contracts
Audited contract list
Commit hash and deployment status
Contract purpose and interaction overview.
Audit Disclosure Policy
B-Labs operates a disclosure framework designed to balance transparency, security, and project maturity while maintaining consistent audit rigor across all engagements.
Open Audits are the default disclosure model and are strongly supported by B-Labs as a trust-minimization standard for Web3 systems. Under this model, audit reports are made publicly accessible and include transparent vulnerability disclosures, documented remediation outcomes, and on-chain verification of applied fixes where applicable. Open Audits are intended to provide verifiable assurance to users, partners, and investors and are recommended for public-facing protocols, token launches, infrastructure and middleware projects, and community-driven ecosystems.
Private Audits are offered where confidentiality is required due to project stage or sensitivity. These audits are shared exclusively with the client and are commonly used for early-stage development, pre-launch internal validation, or proprietary systems. Private Audits follow the same technical methodology, verification depth, and reporting standards as Open Audits and may be converted to public disclosure at the client’s discretion following remediation or launch.

OpenAudits by B-Labs exists to raise the standard for security and trust in Web3. By combining rigorous engineering review, real onchain verification, and a commitment to transparency, OpenAudits helps teams move from assumptions to proof. This documentation outlines how we approach audits, what we assess, and why open verification matters for protocols operating in public, permissionless environments.
Preparing for deployment, scaling an existing system, or seeking independent validation, OpenAudits is designed to give you and your users confidence in how your protocol behaves in the real world.
