In decentralized finance and even in the overall crypto world, security has become a huge priority after witnessing several crypto hacker attacks. And security audits have become a fundamental trust-building block between platforms and users. With smart contracts managing billions in users’ funds, even a small vulnerability can result in catastrophic consequences. This is why leading DeFi protocols increasingly partner with cybersecurity experts. This partnership ensures that the infrastructure is battle-tested before going live. PancakeSwap Infinity, the newly launched upgrade to the popular DEX, is setting a new benchmark in this regard. As the platform is transitioning into a more advanced and user-friendly version, it has placed Web3 security at the heart of its product development cycle. 

PancakeSwap Infinity and Hexens: A Web 3 Security-First Collaboration

To reestablish the platform’s commitment to safety, PancakeSwap Infinity has collaborated with Hexens. It is a top-tier Web 3.0 cybersecurity company known for its rigorous multi-layered audit processes. Hexens conducted multi-interaction audits of PancakeSwap Infinity’s core and periphery smart contracts over 12 weeks. These extensive audits not only validated the robustness of the protocol. It also contributed to improving the code quality through ongoing feedback. According to Hexens, the initial codebase was already of high quality. But the review process led to further optimization and stronger resilience against potential exploits.
