Our solutions are designed to act as a secure, interoperable layer that connects to your existing core systems (like policy administration systems, CRMs, and ERPs). We use a combination of robust APIs, data oracles (for external data), and middleware to ensure a seamless flow of information between the blockchain and your current infrastructure, minimizing disruption.
Yes, especially the enterprise-grade, permissioned blockchains we use (like Hyperledger Fabric and R3 Corda). Unlike public blockchains, these are private networks where only authorized participants can join. Data is encrypted, and advanced cryptographic techniques ensure that participants only see the information they are permitted to see. The immutable nature of the ledger also creates a tamper-proof audit trail, significantly enhancing overall security and compliance.
The timeline varies depending on the complexity of the use case. A focused Proof of Concept (PoC) to validate a specific idea can be completed in as little as 8-12 weeks. A full-scale enterprise implementation can range from 6 to 12 months or more. We follow a phased approach, delivering value incrementally to ensure the project stays on track and aligns with your business goals.
Our goal is to make the solution manageable without requiring you to hire a team of blockchain experts. We provide comprehensive training and documentation for your IT and business teams. Furthermore, we offer ongoing maintenance and support packages where we manage the technical aspects of the network, allowing you to focus on leveraging the business benefits of the solution.
The choice depends entirely on your use case. For complex B2B transactions requiring high privacy and performance, Hyperledger Fabric or R3 Corda are often excellent choices. For applications that might interact with public networks or require tokenization, a permissioned version of Ethereum might be suitable. Part of our initial strategic consulting is to analyze your specific needs and recommend the platform that provides the best fit for performance, security, and governance.
