About the practice

Founder-led security work. Direct accountability.

Peter Levashov founded SeveraDAO Security for clients who want a senior practitioner directly involved from scope through testing, reporting, and remediation discussions.

Why founder-led

Less handoff. More technical continuity.

The person who helps define the target stays close to the assessment and owns the quality of the report. That reduces context loss and keeps communication direct when a material finding needs attention.

  • Direct technical contact throughout the engagement
  • Manual analysis of business logic and trust boundaries
  • Severity based on exploitability and practical impact
  • Reports written for both engineers and decision-makers
  • Clear ownership of follow-up questions and validation
Attacker-informed perspective

Understanding how adversaries make decisions.

Peter brings a publicly documented, firsthand understanding of attacker behavior, infrastructure, operational constraints, and trust exploitation. SeveraDAO applies that perspective within strict written authorization and controlled Rules of Engagement.

For clients, the value is practical: testing follows plausible attack paths, evidence is validated, and remediation is prioritized around the risk that can actually be realized.

Every assessment is authorized in writing. Targets, exclusions, test windows, and escalation contacts are agreed before work begins.
