Our Development Process


Security & Data Integrity

We prioritize the security and integrity of our users’ data. By leveraging blockchain, we ensure that all records are immutable and tamper-proof

  • Immutable data logging on the blockchain.
  • Secure handling of sensitive data.
  • Best practices like .env for keys and containerization (Docker).
