WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT

Not Just Another
Security Firm.

We built Adevar Labs around the gaps we saw everywhere else.

01

Relationship First, Always

Every engagement is owned end-to-end by a minimum of two senior security engineers. We stay engaged through fix validation and beyond because real security is a relationship, not just a report.

02

Hybrid Model

Our in-house team is augmented by a vetted network of independent security engineers. This lets us scale up very fast, offering shorter timelines than most firms and an almost unlimited capacity.

03

Near-Unlimited Capacity

Because we are not bottlenecked by a fixed headcount, we can take on large, multi-faceted engagements without compromising depth or turnaround pulling in the right specialists when it matters.

04

We Market Your Audit Properly

Security is something users genuinely worry about. We help you tell the story featuring you on The Ship Safely Podcast and through collaborative posts across multiple platforms, turning your audit into trust.

05

A True Thought Partner

When you work with us, the relationship does not end when the engagement closes. You can always reach out with questions, we will be there to help you navigate what comes next.

Experience the difference of working with a partner who stays.

2026 Reality Check

The threat isn't
slowing down.

This is the landscape we were built for. Attackers are not only attacking smart contracts, they're targeting your team, your keys, and your infrastructure. We exist to close those gaps before they're exploited.

$0M+

Stolen in 5 Months

Between January and May 2026, over $840 million was drained across more than 150 Web3 security incidents. The pace is accelerating.

0%

Are Operational

In 2026, roughly 72% of all hacked funds were lost due to private key compromises, infrastructure exploits (like RPC node poisoning), and social engineering.

<0%

Are Code Flaws

While operational threats dominate the headlines, pure smart contract flaws still drained over $86 million in early 2026. A smart contract audit is the mandatory first line of defense.

0%+

State-Backed

Over 75% of the total value hacked in early 2026 has been attributed to highly sophisticated, state-backed actors like Lazarus Group. They spend months staging social engineering attacks against core team members.

Your code may be audited. But is your infrastructure? Your team? Your operations?

How We Work

Two paths. One constant.

Most firms give you either an in-house team that hasn't seen your specific stack, or a network of freelancers with no one accountable for what they find. We pair the two: a specialist matched to your exact codebase, verified by an in-house engineer who answers to the firm.
