Security Features

Bloxchain Protocol Security Model

Our State Abstraction framework implements multiple layers of security:

Multi-Phase Security

  • Time-locked operations prevent immediate exploitation
  • Request/approval workflows ensure proper authorization
  • Mandatory multi-signature requirements eliminate single points of failure

Cryptographic Security

  • EIP-712 compliant meta-transaction signatures
  • Nonce-based replay attack prevention
  • Role separation between signing and execution

Access Control Security

  • Dynamic RBAC with runtime permission updates
  • Function-level granular control
  • Protected system roles that cannot be modified

Security Best Practices

For Developers

  • Always use the latest version of our contracts
  • Implement proper access controls using our RBAC system
  • Follow our secure development guidelines
  • Test thoroughly using our provided test suites

For Auditors

  • Review our security architecture documentation
  • Focus on the StateAbstraction library core functions
  • Verify multi-signature workflow implementations
  • Check meta-transaction signature validation

Security Audit Status

Current Status

  • Development Phase: Testing and validation ongoing
  • Formal Verification: Planned for Q1 2026
  • External Security Audit: Planned for Q1 2026
  • Official Launch: Q1 2026 (post-audit)

Completed Audits
