# Security Audits

As with all crypto technology, risk is real whether using a centralized or decentralized bridge. Some of the more novel decentralized bridges are relatively untested and even those that have been tested are still subject to exploits.

Brotocol is audited by [CoinFabrik](https://www.coinfabrik.com/) and [Defence](https://thesis.co/defense), covering both the contracts and the backends.
