Smart Contract Security Tools | A Guide to Dedaub Security Suite, Step-by-step Tutorial

Dedaub Security Suite (former Watchdog) is not just a tool; it’s a comprehensive security system designed for Smart Contract analysis and transaction monitoring. To make the most of Dedaub Security Suite’s offers, we’ve released a detailed step-by-step tutorial to guide you through its various capabilities. Let’s delve into how this tutorial empowers you to harness the full potential of Watchdog.

Smart Contract Security Tools | Static Analysis

In the ever-changing field of Smart Contract security, proactivity is key. Dedaub Security Suite‘s Static Analysis serves as your first line of defense, rigorously examining contract bytecode to flag potential vulnerabilities before they manifest into real threats. Our tutorial shows you how to navigate this preemptive feature for a stronger, more resilient codebase.

  • Deep-dive into contract bytecode to identify looming vulnerabilities with Watchdog’s state-of-the-art static analysis engine.
  • Benefit from various warning types, alerting you to diverse potential issues.
  • Harness the power of extensive warning categorization and tagging, including tens of warning categories, such as reentrancy, signature malleability, and untrusted transfers.
  • Craft your own code queries to scrutinize specific vulnerabilities, behaviors, or attributes in contracts (such as balances, allowances, or recent transactions).

Smart Contract Security Tools | Transaction Monitoring

Blockchain is a fast-paced world, and reactive strategies don’t work too well. Dedaub Security Suite‘s Transaction Monitoring empowers you to respond, anticipate, and preempt security threats with real-time blockchain surveillance. Learn to set up intricate filters and monitoring systems via our in-depth tutorial.

  • Conduct deep transaction analysis for nuanced insights into contract interactions, down to minor details.
  • Use advanced filters to focus on the events most critical to your project’s security.
  • Leverage macros to calculate and extract specific data values for even deeper transaction scrutiny.
  • Access detailed transaction logs, replete with decoded function calls, emitted events, and vital status information.
  • Tailor your monitoring scope by setting transaction amount or frequency conditions, sharpening your project’s risk management.

Smart Contract Security Tools | Reports

Regular updates on your project’s security posture are not a luxury but a necessity. Dedaub Security Suite‘s Reports feature goes beyond mere data compilation, offering actionable insights to inform your strategic decision-making. Master the generation and interpretation of these comprehensive reports through our tutorial.

  • Receive meticulous, in-depth reports to dissect and understand contract vulnerabilities in detail.
  • Expect rigorously compiled quarterly reviews to gauge your project’s security landscape consistently.
  • Benefit from an added layer of human scrutiny, focusing on high-severity vulnerabilities that automated systems might overlook.

Development Support: Safety Before Deployment

Deploying a Smart Contract is irreversible; any vulnerabilities can become permanent liabilities. Our tutorial allows you to utilize Watchdog’s Development Support feature for critical pre-deployment assessments. Learn how to upload project snapshots and scrutinize them against potential security flaws.

  • Seamlessly upload snapshots of your projects that are still in the development phase.
  • Utilize support for popular development frameworks such as Foundry and Hardhat.
  • Engage pre-deployment checks to catch vulnerabilities before they become part of the blockchain.
  • Use the project snapshot feature for an additional layer of pre-deployment scrutiny.
