Security & Trust Center
Security is the cornerstone of Kontyra. Learn how our zero-trust microservices, hardware-backed WebAuthn credentials, cryptographic JWKS token rotation, and AES-256 storage keep your source code and data protected.
1. Security Philosophy & Zero Trust
Kontyra operates under a strict Zero Trust model. No microservice, sandbox container, or external API client is trusted implicitly, even within our private internal networks. Every request must present cryptographically verifiable identity claims.
Multi-layered boundary checks preceding container or database access
Enforces strict HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) with forward secrecy.
Private keys stay inside client Secure Enclave; server validates public signature.
Gateway verifies token authenticity against rotated RSA-2048 public keys.
Code runs inside sandboxed node-pty containers with strict memory and CPU boundaries.
2. Cryptographic Protocol Architecture
Our identity and event verification substrates rely on battle-tested cryptographic primitives:
Asymmetric RSA 2048-bit keys sign all session tokens. Verification keys rotate automatically at .well-known/jwks.json.
Outbound webhooks include timestamped signatures preventing packet tampering and replay attacks.
Hardware-bound credentials immune to phishing, credential stuffing, and SIM-swapping.
SHA-256 ticket digests checked atomically at venue entrances with duplicate scan detection.
3. Data Encryption In-Transit & At-Rest
Data in Transit: 100% of network traffic across public endpoints and internal microservice channels is encrypted using TLS 1.3 with modern cipher suites. Insecure HTTP connections are automatically redirected to HTTPS with HSTS preloaded.
Data at Rest: All user records, organization audit logs, and DevOS project artifacts stored in Cloud Firestore and S3-compatible object buckets are encrypted using industry-standard AES-256 with automated key rotation.
4. Vulnerability Disclosure & Bug Bounty
We value the contributions of security researchers worldwide. If you discover a potential vulnerability across any Kontyra domain, application, or API, please report it immediately to our dedicated inbox:
We will not pursue legal action against researchers who discover and report vulnerabilities in good faith, avoid violating the privacy of other users, and refrain from degrading platform performance.
5. Compliance & Certification Roadmap
Kontyra adheres to regulatory privacy and security standards:
- GDPR & NDPR: Strict data residency, user right-to-be-forgotten deletion workflows, and transparent sub-processor disclosures.
- SOC 2 Type II: Infrastructure controls audited across Security, Availability, and Confidentiality trust service criteria.
- PCI-DSS Level 1: All payment transactions offloaded directly to certified PCI-DSS compliant gateway rails (Paystack).
