Storing important data in a traditional database creates vulnerabilities to various attack vectors. Data is often left unencrypted due to high cost and inefficiency of traditional encryption. Findora’s breakthrough zero-knowledge technology provides an efficient way for users to perform complex operations on fully-encrypted data, ensuring full confidentiality and immutability. In addition, Findora’s zkLDB comes preloaded with a wide suite of privacy-preserving audit tools that are fully-compliant and enable advanced auditability. Tencent and Findora will collaborate to provide a wealthy array of APIs and SDKs catering to a variety of industries including banking, investment management and gaming.
John Powers, Chief Strategy Officer of Findora, said: “Financial services remain vulnerable to security breaches and cloud providers are challenged to keep up with financial institutions’ security needs. Findora brings advanced solutions for data safety and privacy, providing both trust and efficiency for financial transactions by individuals, firms and markets.”
