According to the whitepaper, these audit checks are run by “Validator nodes”. Participants who provides compute resources as nodes will be rewarded.

In a validator nodes, smart contracts are audit using Security Audit Engine. SAE (Security Audit Engine) takes an unverified smart contract as input, perform the automated security and vulnerability checks, and produces a report. Just like a antivirus program, this security library will evolve when more and more vulnerabilities are discovered.

Richard Ma (CEO and CoFounder of Quantstamp) :
Zeppelin, consensys diligence, zero knowledge, and other really smart guys doing manual audits. Our advantage is that we think in terms of scale and automation. The competition is doing a couple of human audits a month, manually. We are building software that can scale it to thousands a day. It is a completely different scale.

Smart contract just got smarter with Quantstamp.
