Blockchain & Cryptocurrency Penetration Testing
In crypto, an exploit doesn't get rolled back. Have a senior engineer find the path first, while you can still fix it.
Smart Contracts & DeFi
Reentrancy, oracle manipulation, flash loan vectors, and access control flaws in deployed contracts.
Exchanges & Wallets
Authentication, withdrawal flows, trading APIs, and key management on centralized and decentralized platforms.
Nodes & Infrastructure
RPC exposure, validator configuration, and the cloud environment that runs your chain operations.
Audits Stop at the Contract
A smart contract audit reviews the code. It never touches the web app, the API that starts a transaction, the admin panel that upgrades the contract, or the keys that sign it. The biggest crypto exploits happen at those seams.
Exchanges Are Web Apps That Move Money
Broken authentication, IDOR in withdrawal endpoints, and API authorization bypass are ordinary SaaS bugs. On an exchange they are direct fund loss with no chargeback.
Custody Goes Untested
Hot wallet signing, HSM configuration, multi-sig, and the approval chain that moves funds are the highest-value targets on the platform. A front-end pentest never challenges them.
No Report, No Institutional Trust
Investors, custodians, and enterprise customers require a third-party assessment before they engage. They can tell when it’s real. A thin report blocks the deal.
Smart Contracts & DeFi Protocols
Reentrancy, integer overflow, access control, oracle manipulation, flash loans, front-running, and logic flaws in minting, staking, and governance. Solidity, Rust, and Move.
Exchanges & Trading APIs
Session management, withdrawal flow manipulation, API key authorization, order book injection, rate limit evasion, IDOR, and admin panels.
Wallets & Key Management
Hot wallet signing, HSM review, multi-sig validation, seed and private key handling, and the approval workflows that move funds.
Nodes & Infrastructure
RPC endpoint exposure, validator misconfiguration, cloud IAM and network controls, remote access, and segmentation between operations and administration.

FAQ: Blockchain and Cryptocurrency Penetration Testing
What is blockchain penetration testing?
A hands-on simulated attack on a blockchain platform's full stack: smart contracts, web applications, APIs, wallet and key management, node configuration, and cloud. The goal is to find the exploitable flaw before an attacker does, in an industry where a successful exploit is irreversible.
How is a Raxis blockchain pentest different from a smart contract audit?
An audit reviews contract code for known vulnerability patterns. A penetration test attacks the whole platform around the contract: the web app, the transaction APIs, the admin panels, and the signing infrastructure, which is where most large crypto exploits actually happen.
Will testing affect live transactions or funds?
No. Contracts are tested on testnets or forked environments, and exchange and infrastructure testing follows rules of engagement agreed in advance.
Can we use the report for investor or partner due diligence?
Yes, and it is one of the main reasons crypto platforms come to Raxis. The report carries the evidence and specificity institutional reviewers expect.
How often should crypto platforms perform penetration testing?
After every major contract deployment, platform release, or infrastructure change, and at least annually for SOC 2 and institutional partners. Teams that ship constantly use Raxis Attack for continuous coverage.
What certifications do Raxis penetration testers hold?
OSCP, CEH, GPEN, GFACT, and more, listed on our certifications page.
