Security Audits
AdPriva is built for verifiability and trust but cryptography and privacy guarantees are only as strong as their implementation.
Every critical component of the AdPriva stack undergoes continuous internal testing and independent third-party security audits to ensure resilience against fraud, exploits and data leakage.
Audit Scope
- Proof Engine → Cryptographic proofs (Consent, View, Click, Conversion).
- Validation Layer → Fraud detection (entropy checks, replay protection, anomaly detection).
- Settlement System → Escrow and payout smart contracts audited for correctness.
- SDKs & Tag → Verified against fingerprinting, data leakage or injection risks.
- Explorer & APIs → Pen-tested for replay, injection and unauthorized access.
Audit Process
- Internal Reviews → Static analysis, fuzzing, dependency scanning before every release.
- Independent Audits → Annual full-stack audits + per-release reviews by specialist firms.
- Always-On Bug Bounty → Continuous program via HackerOne for responsible disclosures.
- Cryptographic Validation → ZK circuits, Merkle proofs and signature schemes reviewed by external experts.
- Compliance Testing → GDPR, ePrivacy and CCPA alignment verified alongside security checks.
Audit Deliverables
- Audit Reports → Public summaries published in the Transparency Portal & Explorer.
- Verification Certificates → Proof that deployed contracts/APIs/SDKs match audited code.
- Incident Logs → Linked in the Explorer if issues are identified and patched post-audit.
Why Security Audits Matter
- Advertisers → Tamper-proof, fraud-resistant billing.
- Publishers → Revenue protection against fraud and exploits.
- Users → Safe preferences, rewards and wallets.
- Regulators → Independent audit evidence for compliance.
With continuous audits, AdPriva proves not just ad engagement but trust, resilience and compliance at every level of the stack.
