NEW YORK, 26/01/2021 - We’re excited to announce that Paid Network’scodebase which contains the Paid ERC-20 Token, was successfully audited by CertiK. This article elaborates further on the scope of the audit.
Use-Case Profile
PAID Network is an ecosystem-powered decentralized application that leverages blockchain technology to deliver automated smart-contracts to enhance traditional business models with the efficiency and perks DeFi-enabled contracts offer. Paid Network allows its users to create their own policy, to ensure they Get PAID.
Paid Network offers standardized contracts with autofill smart-features, insurance pooling and escrow for international settlements, arbitration models governed by community stakers, reputation scoring, crowdfunding resources, and private and public auctions among other products and services.
Code Review & Auditing Process
The initial review was conducted between January 13th and January 24th, 2021, by CertiK security engineers Alex Papageorgiou, and Angelos Apostolidis.
The report represents the results of our engagement with Paid Network’s implementation of the native PAID token smart contract. Our findings were remediated on the latest version of the codebase. Hence, the issues identified pose no threat to the safety of the contract deployment.
A comprehensive examination will be performed, utilizing Static Analysis and Manual Review techniques. The auditing process focuses on the following considerations:
- Testing smart contracts against both common and uncommon attack vectors.
- 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.
A total of 6 findings were addressed on the vulnerability summary, half of which were informational (3), while only 2 minor and 1 major issue were identified. No critical issues were found during the auditing process, and the Paid Network team alleviated all issues highlighted by the CertiK Professional Services team, pointing towards a clean-cut codebase as written by the team’s engineers.
