# Security Overview

BlazeStake is one of the safest and most secure liquid staking protocols on Solana!

* The smart contract used by BlazeStake was developed under Solana Labs, the same organization that wrote the code for the official Solana validator client
* All features added to this smart contract have been reviewed rigorously by Solana Labs engineers and top ecosystem contributors
* The smart contract has been [audited](/protocol/audits.md) seven times by five separate organizations to ensure maximum safety of funds
* There is no way for anyone else to steal your SOL from the stake pool (not even the pool operator can withdraw funds owned by you)
* The upgrade authority for the smart contract is currently governed by a robust ecosystem multisig that is overseen by the Solana Foundation to ensure that no malicious updates can be deployed
