To provide the best security for our users, we need to hire the best companies in the space for Audits and advice on the security of ChainPort.
CertiK, founded by high-end cybersecurity experts from Yale and Columbia University, has the highest standards in the cybersecurity industry.
CertiK Skynet
CertiK Skynet is a 24/7 running security intelligence engine that provides in-depth details on any smart contract the company has audited.
Skynet by CertiK is one of the best security solutions to prevent possible exploits while the contract is live on the blockchain. Skynet by CertiK is already scanning 24/7/365.
Auditing Process
CertiK auditing process is the most rigorous in the space. Examining all smart contracts used by ChainPort bridge, they use dynamic analysis, static and manual reviews on the code.
The auditing process focuses on the following considerations:
- Testing smart contracts against both common and uncommon attack vectors.
- They are assessing the codebase to ensure compliance with current best practices and industry standards.
- Ensuring contract logic meets the specifications and intentions of the client.
- Cross-referencing contract structure and implementation against similar smart contracts produced by industry leaders.
- Through a line-by-line manual review of the entire codebase on Github
ChainPort Audit Findings
ChainPort successfully passed the CertiK audit process. However, they found minor findings in our code which we already fixed and sent back to them. Critical findings were not found, which only certificates that ChainPort contracts use the highest standard of security.
Our team also resolved minor, info, and medium findings.

About ChainPort
ChainPort is one of the first permissionless bridges between blockchains. Anyone can freely use ChainPort’s highly interactive user interface to port tokens over to different blockchains. Chainport only provides a bridge between Ethereum and Binance Smart Chain (BSC), but bridges to and from more networks will be added very soon.
With so many blockchains in the space right now, interoperability is considered the most important route for the future. ChainPort aims to have fully operable bridges between Ethereum, BSC, Polygon, Polkadot, and Cardano. Any token ported over from various blockchains using ChainPort is fully operable there and can interact with any of the DApps on the Networks.
