ENTERPRISE-GRADE SECURITY
Core Components of Our Custody Architecture
Our custody architecture is built on a foundation of institutional-grade security protocols and compliance-first design, ensuring your digital assets are protected and managed according to the highest standards.
02
Multi-Party Computation (MPC) Wallets
We implement threshold signature schemes (TSS) to distribute key shards across multiple parties. Transactions require a pre-defined quorum, removing single points of trust and enabling secure, policy-based approvals.

No Single Key
Risk Eliminated

Compliance & Policy Engine
A rules-based engine enforces transaction policies in real-time. Automatically screen against sanctions lists, apply velocity limits, and require multi-level approvals based on amount, destination, or counterparty risk.

Audit Trail & Transaction Monitoring
Every action—from key generation to transaction signing—is immutably logged with user, timestamp, and context. Provides a tamper-proof record for internal audits, regulatory reporting, and forensic analysis.

ENTERPRISE-GRADE RESULTS
Business Outcomes: Secure, Compliant, and Operationally Efficient
Our custody key management system is engineered to deliver measurable business advantages, reducing operational overhead while meeting the strictest security and regulatory standards.
01
Institutional-Grade Security
Multi-party computation (MPC) and hardware security modules (HSMs) eliminate single points of failure. Keys are never stored whole, providing cryptographic security certified by SOC 2 Type II and regular third-party audits.

Infrastructure Decision Analysis
Build vs. Buy: Custody Key Management
A detailed comparison of the time, cost, and risk involved in developing a compliant custody solution in-house versus partnering with Chainscore Labs.
| Key Factor | Build In-House | Buy with Chainscore |
|---|---|---|
Time to Production | 9-18 months | 4-8 weeks |
Initial Development Cost | $300K - $800K+ | $25K - $75K setup |
Annual Maintenance Cost | $150K - $300K (2-3 FTEs) | From $60K (Managed SLA) |
Security & Audit Burden | High (Unaudited risk, self-managed) | Low (Pre-audited modules, insured) |
Compliance Coverage | Self-researched (SOC 2, Travel Rule) | Pre-built for SOC 2, Travel Rule, AML |
Key Recovery Mechanism | Custom implementation required | Multi-party (MPC) with policy engine |

A STRUCTURED APPROACH
Our Implementation Process: From Design to Deployment
Our proven, phased methodology ensures your custody solution is delivered on time, on budget, and to the highest security standards. We move from strategic design to secure, audited deployment with zero operational surprises.
01
1. Architecture & Compliance Design
We design a multi-signature or MPC key management architecture tailored to your jurisdiction's regulatory requirements (e.g., FINRA, FCA, MAS). This includes defining governance policies, access controls, and audit trails.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear answers on how our institutional-grade key management service works, its security guarantees, and integration process.
We implement a multi-party computation (MPC) architecture with a distributed key generation (DKG) ceremony. Private keys are never stored whole; they are split into shares distributed across our secure, geographically separated nodes and your own infrastructure. This eliminates single points of failure and ensures no single entity can access funds unilaterally. All operations are logged on-chain for immutable audit trails.
