Security Audit Automation

Definition

Security audit automation is the use of automated tools and processes to identify vulnerabilities and security weaknesses in software code, particularly smart contracts. This practice involves employing specialized software to systematically scan code for common errors, logical flaws, and potential attack vectors without human intervention. Automated security audits can quickly review large codebases, providing an initial layer of defense and flagging issues for further manual inspection. It enhances the efficiency and consistency of security assessments in blockchain development.
