Security Mechanisms
Aave employs several security mechanisms to protect users’ funds:
-
Smart Contract Audits: The protocol undergoes extensive audits by security firms to identify vulnerabilities in its smart contracts.
-
Safety Module: A portion of the staked AAVE tokens is used as insurance to cover potential shortfalls in the protocol due to bad debts.
-
Liquidation Mechanism: When collateral values drop below a certain threshold, the protocol triggers liquidation of the positions to ensure that lenders are repaid. Users can become liquidators and earn rewards for successfully liquidating under-collateralized loans.
-
Risk Assessment and Parameters: Aave employs risk parameters that determine the health factors of loans and the amount that can be borrowed against specific collateral types, ensuring that assets remain adequately collateralized.
