[**Alpend**](https://cantonnews.org/projects/alpend), the credit protocol being developed on Canton Network by Palladium Labs, has completed an independent smart contract audit with Halborn Security, with all identified findings resolved in the final audited commit.

Halborn is an enterprise-grade blockchain security firm trusted by major financial institutions and blockchain ecosystem leaders, offering smart contract auditing, penetration testing, and advisory services.

For Alpend, the audit is a prerequisite step toward production deployment. As a credit infrastructure protocol on Canton, where institutional participants are expected to interact with real capital, independent security review is a baseline requirement rather than an optional exercise.
