Cecuro reaches 91.43% detection rate on EVMBench security benchmark

San Francisco, United States, June 23, 2026 – Cecuro, an agentic smart contract auditing platform, reported a vulnerability detection rate of 91.43% on EVMBench, the independent benchmark built by OpenAI and Paradigm. The figure rises from a previously published 87.17% on the same scored set and keeps Cecuro ranked first among all systems tested. The result lands as automated attacks accelerate and on-chain losses climb.

EVMBench measures whether an AI system can detect, patch, and exploit real smart contract vulnerabilities drawn from competitive audits. Cecuro’s 91.43% covers a set of 117 vulnerabilities sourced from 40 audits, including findings from public competitions and a purpose-built stablecoin Layer 1. The benchmark scores three distinct tasks: finding a flaw, fixing it without breaking the contract, and writing an end-to-end exploit. Among general frontier models, the strongest detection rate recorded by the benchmark authors was 45.6%. Cecuro’s 91.43% reflects how the work is structured around a model, not a larger model. The 4.26 point gain over the prior figure came from refinements to that orchestration rather than a change in the underlying frontier model.

The timing reflects a sharpening threat environment. The UK AI Security Institute estimates that frontier AI cyber-offense capability is now doubling roughly every 4.7 months, down from an 8-month estimate in late 2025. Anthropic reported that the share of tracked threat actors using AI rose from 33% to 56% over a single year. The losses are concrete: Chainalysis reported about $3.4 billion stolen in crypto during 2025, including the roughly $1.5 billion Bybit hack in February. As offensive tooling compounds, defenses that improve at the same pace carry the advantage.

“Detection is the bottleneck, not exploitation,” said Daniel Delouya, CEO at Cecuro. “Once a flaw is identified, writing the exploit is often mechanical, and attackers already automate that step. The hard part is reasoning across a whole protocol to find the flaw in the first place. This jump from 87.17% to 91.43% did not come from a bigger model. It came from how we coordinate many specialized agents pursuing separate hypotheses, then confirm each finding with a working proof-of-concept. That is why the same model performs so differently inside our system, and why the gap over general-purpose tools keeps widening.”

Cecuro runs roughly 180 specialized AI agents over an average of about eight hours per audit, with findings confirmed by proof-of-concept exploits and symbolic execution before they reach a report. The platform supports all chains and smart contract languages, with reports starting at $799.

About Cecuro

Cecuro is an agentic smart-contract auditing platform that ranks #1 on OpenAI’s exploit benchmark, EVMBench, and has a consistent track record of finding vulnerabilities that top audit firms miss. Each security review is done in hours, not weeks, at roughly 90 percent lower cost than traditional audits. Its proprietary agentic system deploys hundreds of specialized agents, reasons about contracts from multiple perspectives, and validates each finding with proof-of-concept exploits before reporting. Cecuro supports all blockchain networks and smart-contract languages, with a free trial included.

The AI boom may follow the path of the 19th-century railway bubble, and builders may not be the ultimate winners

Goldman Sachs analyst Bobby Molavi compared the current situation to the 19th-century British railway mania: 500 companies spent more than the nation's annual income building 8,000 miles of railway, with most early investors losing out, while the real beneficiaries were the later "passengers." He pointed out that the current AI craze is driven by both debt and momentum, and that the S&P 500’s forward P/E ratio of 18x is only "a bit cheaper." Whether the builders can retain value is uncertain, and history does not offer an optimistic answer.

The AI boom may follow the path of the 19th-century railway bubble, and builders may not be the ultimate winners

If Anthropic's IPO goes smoothly and the stock price rises next week, then everything remains the same for AI. Otherwise, some companies will go bankrupt.

The shrinking valuations of two major giants have triggered a chain reaction—investors are adopting more conservative revenue multiples for AI startups and are directly halting high-valuation financing for companies with zero revenue. Multiple venture capital firms have advised their portfolio companies to lower valuation expectations and to quickly build up cash reserves. Market participants warn that the outcome of Anthropic’s IPO will be a barometer for the industry: if successful, the boom will continue; if it fails, some companies may face elimination.

Corning (GLW.US) receives initial "Buy" rating from Jefferies! AI factories driving a fiber optic rush, with a potential global supply gap of up to 30%

For Corning, the recent profit growth mainly comes from the expansion of AI clusters. As the number of optical links crossing cabinets and campuses increases, customers need to deploy more optical fibers within limited conduit and cabinet space, thus driving demand for high-density optical cables and connection systems.
