The power of data security with distributed trust ledger and blockchain

The way we collect, use, share, manage, and store data is rapidly shifting, as laws that govern data are evolving and the risks associated with data breaches grow and become more complex each day. The need for robust and resilient systems that safeguard sensitive data is more critical than ever — and that includes ensuring that existing compliance protocols are up-to-date and comprehensive enough to protect your business.

"For organizations handling digital information, investing in tools that secure data sharing, management, and storage is absolutely essential. If you're not making these investments you can end up facing severe consequences such as data breaches, non-compliance, operational disruptions, and financial losses." — Mike Anderson, Intlabs CTO.

Leveraging tools that operate using a zero trust model — meaning that access is limited and closely monitored — enables teams to streamline their processes so they have the time and peace of mind to focus on their business.

Why ORIGIN uses non-repudiation

Non-repudiation is a security concept that helps ensure the authenticity and integrity of data and communications. Non-repudiation means that a party cannot deny the authenticity of their signature in a document or a message. The practice provides proof of the origin and integrity of data so that actions or transactions cannot be refuted later.

By providing indisputable proof of the origin and content of a message or transaction, non-repudiation safeguards against fraud, enhances accountability, and fosters a secure environment for digital interactions. This assurance is vital for compliance with regulations and for the protection of sensitive data, ultimately upholding the integrity and credibility of organizations and individuals.

Inside ORIGIN’s data ledger

Within the ORIGIN platform is a sophisticated data ledger system designed to enforce the utmost security. One of the key pillars of ORIGIN’s data ledger system is non-repudiation. This ensures that any action taken within the system is traceable. In simpler terms, non-repudiation means you can see exactly what actions were taken, by whom, and when, without the ability to refute or alter this information in the future. Decentralization reduces bottlenecks, enhancing the efficiency of data management and sharing. ORIGIN also employs an AI model that delivers compliance guidance in line with global data protection regulations.

Leveraging a distributed trust ledger and blockchain

To achieve this level of transparency and security, ORIGIN uses blockchain technology to create a distributed ledger of activities. This means that an activity, like redaction, cannot be exported to a cloud drive and that blockchain systems still record the action in the ledger. This approach ensures all records and logs are kept in one secure place.?

Why use a distributed trust ledger?

A distributed trust ledger is a decentralized database that maintains a continuously growing list of records, called blocks, which are linked and secured. This decentralization ensures no single point of failure, making the system highly resilient to attacks.

Why use blockchain technology?

Blockchain technology further enhances data security by creating a secure and unchangeable record of transactions. Each block in the blockchain includes a link to the previous block, a timestamp, and transaction data. This setup ensures that once data is recorded, it cannot be changed without altering all subsequent blocks, which requires network approval.

What makes ORIGIN different?

"Unlike traditional security measures that primarily focus on preventing unauthorized access, ORIGIN provides an immutable record of all data transactions and actions, making it impossible to alter or deny any activity. This feature is crucial for maintaining trust and accountability, particularly in industries with stringent regulatory requirements." — Karl Swannie, Intlabs CEO.

Additionally, ORIGIN’s comprehensive logging, user identification, and time-stamping capabilities offer unparalleled transparency and traceability, essential for regulatory compliance and dispute resolution.

Eliminating single points of failure

By leveraging the decentralized nature of blockchain, ORIGIN eliminates single points of failure, enhancing the system’s resilience against attacks and ensuring uninterrupted access to data. This advanced approach not only protects sensitive information but also builds a robust foundation for secure and reliable data management, setting ORIGIN apart from other solutions.
