VaaSBlock is both the publisher of this profile and the issuer of the RMA certification referenced here. Readers should weigh that relationship when assessing the RMA designation on this page.

The DeFi security industry has a structural problem: most firms that claim to evaluate risk accept payment from the projects they review. DeFiSafety built its model around refusing that arrangement. Founded in Montreal in 2020, it publishes every criterion, every scoring matrix, and every traceability guide in its Process Quality Review methodology, so any independent party can replicate or… challenge the verdict. When the methodology is closed, the output is opinion. When it is open, it becomes evidence.

What DeFiSafety assesses is not smart-contract code at a point in time but the practices that determine whether a project behaves safely over a longer arc: documentation quality, test coverage, audit frequency, admin-key controls, oracle design, and governance transparency. Projects scoring above 70% pass the PQR; above 80%, the historical record shows a 97% incident-free rate since mid-2020. That correlation is available for anyone to verify against the published data.

VaaSBlock’s own analysis of how the RMA and ISO 27001 complement each other traces the same principle: distinct certification frameworks answer distinct questions. DeFiSafety’s VB Transparency Score of 36.29 places it in the 95.6th percentile across all tracked projects on this platform—and all seven RMA pillars are verified. In a security category where peers routinely carry unverified status across every pillar, that record is documented.
