Cold Storage Audit
Focused assessment of air-gapped and hardware-isolated storage setups, including device lifecycle planning and environmental risk factors.
Scope
The Cold Storage Audit targets holders whose primary concern is the physical and operational security of devices that never connect to networked computers. We review your air-gap procedures, signing workflows, and the realistic lifespan of your hardware against manufacturer discontinuation schedules.
Process
- Pre-session questionnaire about device models, purchase dates, and signing procedures
- In-office walkthrough of your signing ceremony (you perform operations; we observe and question)
- Environmental review: fire, flood, theft, and electromagnetic considerations for your storage locations
- Written findings delivered within seven business days
Ideal For
Holders running single-signature hardware wallets with straightforward recovery paths who want a focused check rather than a full archive review. If your setup includes multisig or complex passphrase schemes, the Wallet Archive Review is more appropriate.
