Business Outcomes: Trust, Compliance, and Risk Reduction
Our secure key generation ceremonies are engineered to deliver concrete business value, transforming a critical security process into a strategic asset for your organization.
01
Regulatory & Institutional Trust
Generate cryptographic keys that meet the stringent requirements of financial regulators (SEC, FINRA, MiCA) and institutional partners. Our documented, auditable ceremony process provides the proof-of-custody and procedural integrity required for compliance.

Eliminate Single Points of Failure
Replace vulnerable, single-party key generation with a distributed, multi-party computation (MPC) ceremony. No single entity ever has access to the complete private key, fundamentally eliminating the risk of internal collusion or external compromise of a single secret.

DELIVERING CRYPTOGRAPHIC TRUST
Our Four-Phase Ceremony Delivery Process
A structured, auditable methodology for generating and distributing cryptographic keys with zero-trust principles. We ensure verifiable security from initial design to final handover.
01
Phase 1: Architecture & Threat Modeling
We define the ceremony's security parameters, participant roles, and threat model. Deliverables include a formal specification document and a multi-party computation (MPC) or threshold signature scheme (TSS) architecture tailored to your protocol's needs.

Phase 2: Secure Environment Setup
We provision and harden isolated, air-gapped environments for each ceremony participant. This includes provisioning secure hardware (HSMs/YubiKeys), establishing authenticated communication channels, and creating verifiable software builds.
