Security
At Paravel, we are building a secure, permissionless framework for AI DAOs - autonomous, on-chain organizations governed and operated by artificial intelligence. Our native token, PRVL, powers coordination, execution, and governance across this decentralized network. Security is not a layer - it is the foundation of our architecture. We take a multi-pronged, proactive approach to ensure that both smart contracts and autonomous agents act within safe, verifiable boundaries
Smart Contract AuditsEvery smart contract in our protocol - including token contracts, DAO registries, agent deployment frameworks, and governance modules — is rigorously audited by leading blockchain security firms.We follow best practices for versioning, upgradability, and emergency intervention. Major changes are always re-audited prior to deployment.
AI DAO SafeguardsAI agents are powerful — but power requires constraint. All autonomous agents in the protocol are governed by:
- Permissioned Execution Domains: AI DAOs operate within predefined smart contract sandboxes.
- Hard-Coded Policy Constraints: Guardrails limit actions to whitelisted functions and verifiable data inputs.
- Auditable Decision Logs: All decisions made by agents are cryptographically signed and stored on-chain for transparency.
Governance Attack MitigationPRVL enables protocol-wide governance, including the creation and funding of new AI agents. To prevent hostile takeovers or abuse:
- Timelocks & Quorum Rules: No DAO or upgrade can be activated instantly or without sufficient community support.
- Multisig Emergency Powers: A decentralized security council can pause or override malicious behavior under defined conditions.
- Proposal Simulation Layer: New governance proposals can be run in a forked staging environment before going live.
User Safety GuidelinesEven in a decentralized system, user safety is key. To protect yourself:
- Only interact with official frontends and contract addresses
- Never share your private keys or sign ambiguous transactions
- Use hardware wallets for governance and staking
- Follow verified updates via X, Discord and LinkedIn.
Monitoring & Runtime ProtectionWe deploy continuous monitoring for:
- Abnormal token flows or contract calls
- Unusual AI DAO decision-making patterns
- Oracle drift or data poisoning attempts
Transparent and Community-DrivenWe believe security is a shared responsibility. Our code is open-source, and we welcome peer review, external audits, and community scrutiny.
