A no-fluff pre-audit checklist to reduce critical findings and improve launch confidence for DeFi products.
Audits are strongest when protocol teams enter with solid invariants, comprehensive tests, and clear threat assumptions. Before audit, lock down privileged access, emergency controls, and upgrade policy. Run fuzzing against edge cases and simulate failure paths. Publish assumptions internally so product and engineering teams align on acceptable risk. Mainnet confidence comes from process maturity, not just passing a report.
