Security
Our commitment to security through zero-knowledge architecture
Security Overview
At Zenity, security is fundamental to our zero-knowledge architecture. We provide verifiable compliance and payment infrastructure for AI and human transactions without storing or accessing your data. Our security model is built on cryptographic proofs, Interledger protocol, and zero-knowledge principles.
Zero-Knowledge Security
No Data Storage
Our zero-knowledge architecture means we don't store your data. This eliminates the risk of data breaches, unauthorized access, or data loss. Your sensitive information never enters our systems - we only process cryptographic proofs that verify compliance or transaction validity without revealing underlying data.
Encryption in Transit
All communications between your systems and our services are encrypted using TLS 1.3 with perfect forward secrecy. This ensures that even if communications are intercepted, your data remains protected.
Zero-Knowledge Proofs
We use cryptographic zero-knowledge proofs to verify compliance and process transactions without accessing your data. These proofs provide mathematical guarantees that verifications are valid without revealing any sensitive information.
JSON Data Handling
When data is processed, it exists only in JSON format during active operations. This data is never stored in databases or persistent storage. It is processed in memory and immediately discarded after verification or transaction completion.
Access Control and Authentication
Multi-Factor Authentication
We require multi-factor authentication (MFA) for all administrative access and strongly recommend it for all user accounts. This adds an additional layer of security beyond passwords.
API Authentication
Our API uses industry-standard authentication mechanisms, including API keys, OAuth 2.0, and JWT tokens. All API requests are authenticated and authorized before processing. Since we don't store data, authentication is the only access control mechanism needed.
Cryptographic Keys
All cryptographic operations use secure key management. Private keys are never exposed or transmitted. Zero-knowledge proof generation uses secure cryptographic protocols that protect key material.
Infrastructure Security
Network Security
Our infrastructure is protected by multiple layers of network security, including firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and DDoS protection. We use network segmentation to isolate systems.
Host Security
All servers and systems are hardened according to security best practices, with regular security updates and patches applied promptly. We use automated vulnerability scanning and management.
Interledger Protocol Security
Our payment infrastructure is powered by Interledger, a secure protocol for routing payments across different networks. Interledger provides cryptographic guarantees and secure routing without exposing transaction details.
Monitoring and Incident Response
Continuous Monitoring
We maintain 24/7 security monitoring of our systems, networks, and applications. Our security operations monitor for anomalies, attacks, and system health without accessing any user data.
Security Incident Response
We have a comprehensive incident response plan to quickly detect, contain, and remediate security incidents. Since we don't store data, incidents primarily relate to service availability and infrastructure security rather than data breaches.
Audit Trails
We maintain audit trails for system operations and security events. These logs contain no user data, only metadata about operations, authentication attempts, and system events.
Security Best Practices for Users
To help maintain security, we recommend that you:
- Enable multi-factor authentication on your account
- Use strong, unique passwords and change them regularly
- Keep your API keys and credentials secure and never share them
- Regularly review your account activity
- Implement secure coding practices when integrating with our APIs
- Keep your systems and dependencies up to date with security patches
- Report any suspected security issues immediately
- Maintain secure storage of your own data and cryptographic keys
