Security & Trust
Enterprise-grade security designed for businesses that require cryptographic proof and compliance-ready infrastructure.
Security by Design
CertNode is built on cryptographic principles that ensure receipts are verifiable, tamper-evident, and trustless.
Cryptographic Verification
Every receipt contains a cryptographic hash that can be verified offline. No need to trust CertNode's servers—verification is mathematically provable.
Tamper-Evident Logs
Receipts are immutable once created. Any attempt to alter a receipt breaks its cryptographic signature, making tampering immediately detectable.
Blockchain Anchoring
Critical receipts can be anchored to public blockchains, providing independent third-party verification that's auditable by anyone.

SOX Controls
Tamper-proof financial transaction logs and automated evidence collection for Sarbanes-Oxley compliance.
Data Handling & Privacy
What Data We Collect
CertNode collects only the data necessary to generate cryptographic receipts: transaction metadata, content hashes, and operational event logs. We do not collect or store payment card information or sensitive personal data unless required for your specific use case.
Data Retention
Receipts are retained according to your plan's retention policy (typically 7 years for compliance). You can export or delete your data at any time. Blockchain-anchored receipts remain permanently verifiable.
Data Location
Data is stored in enterprise-grade data centers with geographic redundancy. Enterprise customers can specify data residency requirements (US, EU, or other regions).
Data Access
You own your data. CertNode employees have limited access only for support purposes, and all access is logged. You can export your full dataset in standard formats at any time.
Trustless Verification
Unlike fraud detection systems that require trusting a vendor's scoring algorithm, CertNode receipts are mathematically verifiable. You don't have to trust us—cryptographic proof either verifies or it doesn't. No black boxes, no vendor lock-in.
Security Disclosure
If you discover a security vulnerability in CertNode, we encourage responsible disclosure. Please report security issues directly to our team.
We'll acknowledge your report within 24 hours and provide a detailed response within 5 business days. We appreciate the security research community's efforts to keep our platform secure.
