Our Mission

Web3 security shouldn't be an afterthought. Traditional audits are expensive, slow, and often miss critical vulnerabilities that only emerge under real attack conditions.

Vultbase bridges this gap with active attack simulation and intelligence-powered analysis. Our platform learns from every test, building a comprehensive understanding of Web3 threat patterns that benefits the entire ecosystem.

Continuous validation for evolving threat landscapes
"Security audits tell you what's wrong with your code. Vultbase shows you what attackers can actually do with it."
— Marcus Weber, CTO of Compound Protocol

Technology & Approach
How we're different from traditional security audits

Traditional Audits

  • • Static code analysis only
  • • Manual review process
  • • Point-in-time assessment
  • • Generic vulnerability checklists
  • • No learning between clients
  • • $30K-$150K+ cost

Knektz Intelligence Platform

  • • Active attack simulation
  • • Intelligence-Powered threat analysis
  • • Continuous validation option
  • • Context-aware risk scoring
  • • Cross-protocol threat intelligence
  • • $3.5K-$30K cost range

Our Intelligence Engine

Every test contributes to our growing database of Web3 attack patterns. This collective intelligence helps us identify emerging threats and provides context-aware risk assessment that improves with every protocol we analyze.
