Advantage: Highest safety

Our offering fuses the advantages of hot and cold storage into a secure and flexible solution to guarantee high security and fast access to funds.

Access to digital assets can be either highly automated or within the framework of a freely definable release process with multiple authorization levels. At the request of the customer bank, transactions critical to it can additionally be released by it.

Custody

Highly secured and redundant security architecture

The keys are securely stored at our contractual partner Crypto Storage AG on a Hardware Security Module (HSM) from Securosys SA. Crypto Storage AG has three secure locations.

Thanks to the Approval Terminals from Securosys SA, a multi-signature solution can be offered using cards, people, time and codes.

Custody at the partner bank includes segregation at customer level. This offers increased security and no own positions arise for the customer bank. Consequently, there is also no obligation to deposit own funds.
