While security research and an audit is a must for your protocol these days, some people ignore a pre-audit step.
Today I'd like to give you a few reasons why a pre-audit can help you get the most out of the security audit and make your project much more secure.
1. Pre-audit can help you to detect the most common bugs and vulnerabilities. Later auditors will be able to focus on the niche problems in your code and bring the best security results.
2. The pre-audit uses advanced static analysis bots to find almost all gas and info issues.
3. It can also help you find more invariants and properties in your contracts to test.
4. Pre-audit can find the missing pieces for your upcoming audit: insufficient natspec comments, documentation, user role descriptions, etc.
5. It can give you advice on which parts of the contract should be tested more, and with which conditions. It can also find a piece of code that should be tested with invariant and formal verification tests.
6. The pre-audit can help you to create a protocol documentation from the auditor's perspective.
7. It is much cheaper than a regular audit service. Prices start at $3000 per 1000 SLOC!
8. You'll end up with a report that can improve your security process!
Do not underestimate the importance of a pre-audit service for your project. It can really help in the early stages of development.
