GRID AUDIT FRAMEWORK

Grid Audit Framework

A comprehensive 6-pillar security assessment framework combining automated scanning with expert human review.

Security Assessment Pillars

Frontend Security

Client-side security, XSS prevention, and UI-based attack vectors.

Content Security Policy (CSP) headers
Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) prevention
Client-side input validation
Secure authentication flows
Third-party script analysis
Browser security features

API Security

REST/GraphQL endpoint security, authentication, and data validation.

Authentication and authorization
Input validation and sanitization
Rate limiting and throttling
API versioning and deprecation
Error handling and information disclosure
CORS configuration

Infrastructure

Server configuration, SSL/TLS, and hosting environment security.

SSL/TLS configuration and certificates
HTTP security headers
DNS security (DNSSEC, CAA records)
Server configuration hardening
Port and service exposure
CDN and load balancer security

Data Protection

Data handling practices, encryption, and privacy compliance.

Data encryption in transit and at rest
PII handling and GDPR compliance
Database security configuration
Backup and recovery procedures
Data retention policies
Third-party data sharing

Network Security

Network-level protections, firewall rules, and traffic filtering.

Firewall configuration and rules
DDoS protection mechanisms
Network segmentation
VPN and remote access security
Traffic monitoring and logging
Intrusion detection systems

Smart Contract Logic

Blockchain and smart contract security, business logic flaws.

Smart contract vulnerabilities
Business logic validation
Transaction security patterns
Access control mechanisms
Reentrancy and overflow protection
Gas optimization and limits

Important Disclaimer

Grid audit reports are assessments based on the state of the application at the time of review. Security is an ongoing process, and this audit does not guarantee future security.

Grid does not provide financial advice, investment recommendations, or guarantee the absence of all vulnerabilities. This audit focuses on technical security implementation only.

Projects should continue to follow security best practices, monitor for new vulnerabilities, and consider regular re-audits as their applications evolve.
