[New Audit] Bert launches DualDefense Contest With Up to $22,000 on HackenProof

What is DualDefense

DualDefense is a service that combines traditional security audit services with HackenProof crowdsourced audits, powered by the community. After your main audit, HackenProof bug hunters additionally review your code. If critical bugs are found during the Crowdsourced Audit period, rewards are covered by the DualDefense Flash Pool community of stakers, preventing costs from being shifted to the project.

Auditors, the community of stakers, and bug hunters — all working together to protect your systems. By participating in DualDefense, Bert ensures maximum protection for its platform and engages the security research community to identify vulnerabilities before they can affect users.

Last Audit

Since DualDefense Audit always follows the traditional audit, the last BERT audit has already been done by Hacken.

Bert Enters the DualDefense Arena

Bertram The Pomeranian (BERT) is a memecoin implemented as an SPL token on the Solana blockchain. Originally launched on Pump.fun by an anonymous creator, the token has undergone a community takeover (CTO). The current community, including the entity seeking admission to trading, purchased tokens on the open market and does not control or have any special relationship with the original issuer.

Focus Area

This DualDefense is focused on smart contract targets. Here are the vulnerabilities in scope:

• Stealing or loss of end-user funds
• Permanent lock of end-user funds

To increase your chances of finding a critical bug, read Bert’s whitepaper here.

Bounty Breakdown

As part of the DualDefense program, Bert will reward security researchers for discovering critical vulnerabilities that could put the system or its users at risk.

• Critical bugs: up to $22,000 per valid submission.

Other findings may be acknowledged, but rewards are reserved exclusively for critical issues.

How to Participate

DualDefense starts on August, 19 and will run until September, 15. Bert is already looking forward to your findings, so you can join the program and submit your reports here!
