Documentation

README

Secure Workflow Guide

Purpose

Guides through Trail of Bits' secure development workflow - a 5-step process to enhance smart contract security throughout development.

Use this: On every check-in, before deployment, or when you want a security review


The 5-Step Workflow

Covers a security workflow including:

Step 1: Check for Known Security Issues

Run Slither with 70+ built-in detectors to find common vulnerabilities:

  • Parse findings by severity
  • Explain each issue with file references
  • Recommend fixes
  • Help triage false positives

Goal: Clean Slither report or documented triages

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
