Uppsala Completes Smart Contract Audit for HeLa Network: Here’s What You Need to Know

At Uppsala, we’re committed to making blockchain technology safer and more secure for everyone. Recently, we completed a comprehensive audit of HeLa Network’s smart contract, helping ensure that their platform remains trustworthy and reliable for users like you.

Why We Audited HeLa Network’s Smart Contract

HeLa Labs is a rising star in the blockchain space, a modular Layer 1 blockchain enabling AI infrastructure for Web2 and Web3 across various sectors, including gaming, DeFi, DePIN, and many more. As with any platform handling sensitive data and assets, ensuring the security of its smart contract is essential. Smart contracts are self-executing agreements encoded directly onto the blockchain, and any vulnerabilities could put users’ assets at risk.

To mitigate such risks, HeLa Labs partnered with Uppsala to conduct an in-depth audit, allowing us to identify and fix any security gaps, ensuring the platform’s safety before any issues could arise.

How We Conducted the Audit

Our audit was designed to cover every angle of security and to be as comprehensive as possible. Here’s how we approached it:

• Code Review: We looked closely at the smart contracts’ code to find any potential bugs or vulnerabilities that might have been missed during development.
• Security Analysis: Using automated tools and manual review, we tested the smart contract against known security threats. The following 3 phases were adopted:

1. Static Analysis: We scanned the smart contract code using automated tools to detect any potential vulnerabilities in the code structure and logic.
2. Dynamic Analysis: We ran simulations to test how the smart contracts behaved in various real-world scenarios, ensuring they were robust under different test cases.
3. Manual Review: Our expert auditors manually inspected the code, pinpointing any issues that automated tools might have missed, and verifying that best practices were followed.

Key Findings & Resolutions

The audit successfully identified a few critical areas that required attention:

• Vulnerable Dependencies: We identified third-party dependencies that posed a risk and promptly removed them. In addition, we worked with the HeLa team to ensure that proper precautions are in place for future updates.
• Best Practices: We ensured that all best practices are now fully implemented, reducing the risk of future vulnerabilities and enhancing the overall security of the platform.

Thanks to these efforts, HeLa Network is now even more secure, and users can engage with the platform with full confidence.

What This Means for HeLa Network Users

For HeLa Network users, the audit provides peace of mind. The platform’s smart contracts are now fortified against known vulnerabilities, and with the implementation of industry best practices, the chances of security issues in the future have been minimized.

We believe in transparency, so we’re making the full audit report public. You can review the detailed findings here, and see exactly how the platform was improved.

Disclaimer

While the audit has addressed and resolved all identified vulnerabilities, it is important to note that no security audit can provide a 100% guarantee of safety. As the blockchain landscape evolves, new threats may emerge. We encourage all users to practice good security hygiene and stay informed about potential risks. Uppsala will continue working with HeLa Labs to monitor and maintain the security of the platform over time.
