About DataCryptChain

DataCryptChain is an open-source standard combining cutting-edge blockchain technology with advanced encryption ensuring research data remains private, secure, shareable, and tamper-proof.

PRIVATE: Private data is immediately encrypted upon acquisition, allowing external collaborators to collect private identifiers invisible to their teams. Near-identifying data can also be encrypted. Encryption prevents unauthorized access while ensuring seamless access for those authorized.

SECURE: Asymmetric encryption ensures only designated users decrypt the data. Private encryption keys are never shared, transmitted, or stored with the data. Even during a server breach, data is unreadable without an encryption key.

SHAREABLE: The open-source standard allows vendors to create connectors for other data analysis tools. Data owners can share data-sets of any size with confidence - leading to increased collaboration.

TAMPER-PROOF: Blockchain technology ensures data integrity. The blockchain ledger records and identifies all access and changes - safeguarding against accidental or intentional data corruption.
