Governance System Audit for Infrared Protocol

Governance Infrastructure Security Review of Infrared

Infrared is a staking and governance coordination layer built on Berachain, designed to manage reward routing, validator incentives, and vote-escrowed token participation. Its architecture supports liquid staking assets like iBGT and iBERA, cutting board weight distribution, bribe collection, and on-chain voting logic tied to epoch-based emissions.

To secure this infrastructure, the Infrared team engaged Cantina for a detailed security audits assessment covering validator flows, reward precision, and voting mechanics. The review examined edge cases in bribe distribution, vault harvesting, epoch accounting, and the protocol’s permissioning system for governors and keepers.

Cantina also provides broader risk coverage through bug bounty programs, crowdsourced security competitions, and multisig security to help secure complex governance and staking systems.
