Dear Zcash community,
We wanted to share here that we received the completed Final Audit Report from Least Authority a few weeks ago.
To summarize, the initial report stated our work was
well-organized and of high quality, … adheres closely to development best practices
It also said
the system [was found] to be well-designed and clearly documented, with a strong emphasis on security.
We received a few suggestions for improvement as a part of the initial report, which we have incorporated. You can check out the complete Audit Report here. This completes Milestone #5 of our grant.
In other updates, we have set up a persistent Zebra node on an ECS instance, as a step towards setting up a dedicated ZSA testnet. We are have a couple of Github Actions that will run a Docker image that will be able to set all this up for a user to use. We are working on a few test scenarios to include in addition to the initial scenario we already have in PR#13 of the zcash_tx_tool repository.
We look forward to hearing what you think!
Best regards,
The QEDIT team.
