STRUCTURED GOVERNANCE
What Our Policy Framework Delivers
Our framework translates complex security requirements into enforceable, automated policies that protect your assets and ensure compliance. We deliver concrete, auditable outcomes, not just documentation.
01
Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) Design
We architect granular, multi-signature policies defining who can perform specific actions (e.g., sign transactions, deploy contracts) based on role, time, and asset thresholds. Eliminates single points of failure.

02
Transaction Policy Engine
Define and enforce rules for transaction validity: daily limits, allowed recipient addresses, contract whitelists, and gas price caps. Policies execute automatically before signing.

ENTERPRISE-GRADE FRAMEWORK
Operationalize Security, Reduce Risk
Move beyond theoretical security. Our policy frameworks translate best practices into enforceable, auditable operational procedures, reducing your attack surface and compliance burden.
01
Multi-Sig Governance Design
Implement secure, multi-layered approval workflows for treasury and protocol operations. We design policies that balance security with operational agility, preventing single points of failure.
Deliverables: M-of-N threshold schemas, time-lock configurations, and role-based access control matrices.

STRUCTURED APPROACH
Our Design & Implementation Process
A proven, four-phase methodology to deliver a robust, production-ready key management policy framework that meets compliance and security requirements.
01
Discovery & Policy Assessment
We conduct a comprehensive audit of your current key management practices, threat models, and compliance requirements (SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR). Deliverables include a detailed risk assessment and a tailored policy requirements document.

Key Management Policy Framework FAQ
Answers to the most common questions from CTOs and security leads about our policy design process, timelines, and security guarantees.
Our engagement follows a structured 4-phase process: 1) Discovery & Risk Assessment (1 week) to map your assets and threat model. 2) Policy Architecture (1-2 weeks) where we draft the core policy document. 3) Technical Implementation Review (1 week) to align with your smart contract and backend systems. 4) Deployment & Training (1 week) for your team. We provide a fixed-price proposal after the initial discovery call.
