What is an Audit Competition?

An Immunefi Audit Competition is a time-bound code review by best-in-class security researchers aimed at protecting your code from vulnerabilities when you need it the most.

Audit Competitions help you to harden code post-audit, at testnet or even before launching a mainnet bug bounty. Audit Competitions surface critical reports in real-time as the program runs, enabling you to mitigate vulnerabilities without having to wait for long audits to finish, which effectively maximizes your speed to launch.

Audit Competitions are an ideal way to harden code at critical lifecycle junctures (e.g. mainnet launch or a code update), incentivizing the industry’s top whitehats to secure your project when you need it most.

FAQ

How do Audit Competitions work?

An Audit Competition is a decentralized, timebound code review, where projects offer a capped rewards pool that is distributed to whitehats at the end of the event based on bug report submissions.

Immunefi works with the project to determine the structure of their program, the reward pool size, the length of the Audit Competition, and then provides expert marketing support and education to launch it to Immunefi’s whitehat army.

Once the Audit Competition concludes, whitehats receive their rewards, and projects receive a full Audit Competition summary report, detailing learnings and findings.

How are whitehat rewards distributed?

Rewards are distributed to whitehats based on the value of their individual bug reports as measured by Immunefi’s grading criteria and weighted against all other submissions.
