# Are there any security risks?

All users should always be aware that there is a possibility of a smart contract flaw being found in any of the decentralized finance protocols which could result in users funds being lost.

This risk becomes lower depending on whether the associated smart contracts have been audited, how long the protocol has been in use, the amount of funds that has been managed by the protocol so far, etc...

As of now, this research is left to the end user, but we are discussing ways we could make some of this information available in DeFi Saver.
