# Smart Contract Vulnerabilities Defx's perpetual futures exchange is fundamentally dependent on the integrity and security of its smart contracts. Any flaws or vulnerabilities in these contracts could lead to significant financial losses for users. To mitigate this risk, Defx conducts rigorous and regular audits. In addition to this, our smart contracts are audited by Nethermind Security. However, it is worth remembering that the possibility of undetected issues remains. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
