📄️ Security driven design
The RedStone architecture implements a distributed system design pattern with modular components interconnected through standardized interfaces, eliminating single points of failure through strategic redundancy and component isolation. This approach mirrors high-reliability engineering practices employed in critical sectors such as medical devices and aviation systems, where redundant subsystems and fault isolation are essential for maintaining operational safety. Just as aircraft employ multiple independent flight control computers and medical devices utilize redundant monitoring systems, RedStone's architecture ensures system integrity through similar principles of component independence and fail-safe design.
📄️ Development process
RedStone implements a comprehensive security-driven development lifecycle that prioritizes system integrity through rigorous process controls and multi-layer validation procedures. The development workflow begins with design documentation subject to cross-functional peer review, ensuring architectural decisions are thoroughly evaluated for potential security implications before implementation commences.
📄️ Prevention & monitoring
RedStone implements a comprehensive testing strategy that spans multiple layers of validation to ensure system integrity and security. Unit tests provide granular validation of individual components, with particular emphasis on edge cases and error handling in security-critical functions. Integration tests verify correct interaction between system components, including validation of cryptographic operations and data flow integrity. End-to-end tests simulate complete operational scenarios across the entire infrastructure stack, while specialized crash-testing systematically introduces failures at various system levels to validate graceful degradation and recovery mechanisms.
📄️ Audits
RedStone maintains a rigorous external security audit program as a cornerstone of its security assurance framework. Multiple independent security firms specializing in blockchain infrastructure conduct comprehensive audits of both core protocol components and significant system modifications prior to production deployment. The audit scope encompasses the entire infrastructure stack, including smart contracts, cryptographic attestation mechanisms, and relay networks. Critical findings undergo immediate remediation with subsequent validation, and audit reports are made publicly available below:
