# Token Security Scan

When selecting a token, you will be able to run a security scan of the token contract. This can identify taxes, sell limits, and other useful information. This security scan can be run every 5 minutes and results are shared amongst other users.

You can cycle through historical security scans of each token by changing the page at the bottom of the security scan panel. This is helpful to compare taxes at start of trading, buy/sell limits, etc.

{% hint style="danger" %}
Security info on a token is not 100% guaranteed as contract owners can modify settings at any time, creating honeypots or rugging users. Trade at your own risk.
{% endhint %}
