The below sections elaborate on the solutions by the Kalptantra ecosystem. Let’s dig deeper into the Kalptantra privacy and security intent and implementation.
Privacy and Security on Kalptantra
User privacy and data security are significant concerns under the initiation and formation of a robust network. Security facilitates a protection layer to safeguard against potential threats and misapplication of the system. Whereas, privacy ensures the right authorization and access of data to the intended users. Kalptantra enables security and privacy mechanism to protect against network and user data exploitation under various conditions and functionalities.
The below features elucidate Kalpantra's verve to strengthen its blockchain ecosystem.
Decentralization
Concerning the blockchain operability reliance on leading cloud providers, Kalptantra facilitates multi-cloud and on-premise network node deployment. Kalptantra walks towards achieving true decentralization–be it the network layer or data storage layer. For the network layer, we propose our oracles–Sadan and Sabha. On the other hand, for data storage, we ensure unbounded regional/geographical deployment with complete access to the different locations for on-chain data.
The below section covers the initiatives by Kalptantra toward protecting network nodes against any single point of failure.
Unbounded Regional/Geographical Deployment
Kalpatantra ensures unrestricted and unbounded geographical deployment of the blockchain network nodes as per the laws of the land. Kalptantra facilitates multi-cloud and on-premise node deployment with the proper segregation in various geography-based regional zones across the world. Here, regional zones or regions refer to independent and separate geographical areas–representing a logical-level abstract distribution of physical servers at a particular location.
Complete Control Over the Location of On-chain Data
Kalptantra, with the data stored over the cloud and on-premise nodes worldwide, takes complete control over the on-chain data–ensuring no point of failure. It provides fine-grain customizable access control as per the client’s business requirements of the private blockchain. Moreover, one can create different roles and allocate them with definite access control of actions in the network as a respective participant.
The above approaches ensure the infinite liveness of the Kalptantra blockchain ecosystem with no single point of failure–using multi-cloud and on-premise network node deployment.
Permissioned Blockchain Ecosystem with KYCed Participation
Kalptantra is a permissioned blockchain ecosystem that ensures the legitimacy and traceability of network participants. It proclaims an open blockchain network with a permissioned ecosystem with rigorous know-your-customer (KYC) verification. Kalptantra allows anyone–individual or an enterprise–to join the network after successfully completing the KYC verification process. This validation for network participation assures the participant’s identity in case of disparity–such as involvement in money laundering or other illicit actions.
Our Self-Regulated PETs
Self-regulated PETs–as the name suggests–represent a self-sustainable and legally regulated ecosystem. The PETs replicate real-life justice laws under national jurisdiction to safeguard consumers against legal scrutiny and cyber scams. It ensures consumer protection against legal scrutiny while providing privacy guardship.
Kalptantra facilitates a blockchain ecosystem where it uses self-regulates PETs–named SADAN (Legal Layer) and SABHA (Grevience Layer)–for consumers, investors, companies, and stakeholders.
Sadan - Legal Layer
Sadan represents a Legal Layer on the Kalptantra blockchain ecosystem–proposed by P2E Pro. It enacts as an oracle with experienced legal professionals and automated legal services (Legal SDK) that audits smart contracts on the Kalp blockchain to become legally compliant with the laws of the land.
These are the following ways in which Sadan can help to protect consumers and investors:
Sadan Features | Description |
|---|---|
Ensure Investors' Protection | Sadan protects investors against legal scrutiny and helps them maintain their data privacy and confidentiality. |
Employ Intellectual property rights | Intellectual properties (such as art, music, etc.) go under legally audited complaint patents and are stored on the Kalp blockchain. |
Implement the laws of the land | Sadan enables auditing per the country's laws to protect investors and traders from legal scrutiny. |
Adhere to regulations like GDPR | Sadan assists in adhering to data security regulations and compliances (such as Global Data Privacy Regulations (GDPR), Central Consumer Privacy Authority (CCPA), etc.) to protect users' Personal Identifiable Information (PII). |
Protection against Identity theft and Rug pull scams | Sadan protects blockchain participants from identity theft and impersonation. It also reduces the chances of Sybil attacks on the network. |
Sabha - Grievance Layer
A Sabha–the grievance layer–serves as a medium for customers or stakeholders to file or report complaints. Sabha facilitates a faster and complete investigation of the reported grievance and provides them with an appropriate solution. Grievances such as payments, product proposals, rendering the platform security policy documents to customers, corrections, and acknowledgment come under resolutions by Sabha.
These are the following ways in which Sadan can help consumers and investors with their grievances:
Sabha Features | Description |
|---|---|
Faster Complaint Management and Dispute Resolution | Sabha addresses complaints/concerns of the customers/stakeholders effectively to reach satisfactory resolutions. It also keeps the optimized timelines for faster and more effective dispute resolution. |
Accountability and Fair Business Practice | Sabha boasts the legitimacy and accountability attributes of a business towards its customers. It also ensures the platform adheres to fair and safe business practices. |
Improve the Productivity of the Organization | Collecting customer grievances assist businesses in building products, or fixing existing ones, that better suit customers’ wants and needs. |
Blockchain Security
Kalptantra highly prioritizes blockchain security and network integrity. The below section provides a brief understanding of risk management, fault tolerance, and security measures addressed by Kalptantra–against internal and external security threats.
Consensus Mechanism - RAFT
Kalptantra is currently using RAFT consensus protocol on its permissioned blockchain ecosystem. RAFT ensures fair opportunities for all the nodes for candidature and voting. It uses remote procedure calls (RPC) to request votes and synchronize the network. Moreover, The RAFT gets decomposed into smaller subproblems that can be worked upon independently, assuring better comprehension, implementation, operation, correction, and performance optimization for more specific use cases.
In addition, Kalptantra plans to integrate more consensus protocols as per future requirements.
Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) for Enterprise Requirements
Kalptantra facilitates attribute-based access control (ABAC) mechanism for Identity and Access Management. It helps companies or enterprises using Kalptantra blockchain spaces and services for internal bifurcation of roles and access control.
ABAC is a granular access control mechanism for enterprises to classify each role with appropriate access rights distribution internally. It protects the virtual enterprise blockchain space–on Kalptantra–against internal threats and rogue nodes in the network.
In addition, Kalptantra allows the same role allocation to multiple nodes or participants, which ensures adequate control and power distribution to more than one node. It helps the system to maintain a shield against power accumulation at one point of contact. Moreover, it makes the organizational protocols more fault-tolerant and protects against the odds of internal attacks.
Conclusion
P2E Pro–the parent behind the Kalptantra blockchain ecosystem–braces the motivation proposed by the general data protection regulation (GDPR) and other user privacy compliances. Moreover, Kalpantra enables the legal and grievance layer to assure multiple levels of consumer protection–against any scrutiny or injustice.
