While building our own blockchain, the questions of safety and security kept us up at night: heated discussions, controversial opinions on the preferred security features have led us to a breakthrough solution in key storage and management.
For any holder of crypto-assets, storing and managing private keys is one of the primary concerns for keeping them safe. The available options for crypto enthusiasts can be found in our previous article. In this post, we would like to introduce our new product which is part of Array.IO, that can be used separately. We present you…
KeyChain — a truly innovative open-source key management application allows users to generate keys and sign transactions in a secure isolated environment. It can be integrated into any client app or a website. If you integrate KeyChain, any action with the private keys will go through it. You input a passphrase in a secured dialogue window and the information will be sent from KeyChain to your app/website.
KeyChain does not focus solely on b2b nor b2c, it is an ultimate application for any type of service or activity a user might need.
As a developer, you can integrate KeyChain into you project and allow users to manage their keys and sign transactions.
As a user, you implement KeyChain to store your private keys and use them to sign transactions with different apps and websites.
To create KeyChain, our team looked beyond current market solutions. The motivation behind it was to provide a breakthrough product for the safest key storage and management. It is an open-source independent application that is not related to any third-party wallet providers, exchanges or other services which require using signatures. KeyChain assures complete discreteness due to its secured three-layer infrastructure. Intrigued? For the tech savvy we are preparing a deep technical description of KeyChain, don’t miss it! Alert: it’s going to have Christmas KeyChain riddles, too ;)
Let’s take a look at KeyChain’s interface
As of today, you can download KeyChain for macOS instantly and as for app developers and users of Windows and Linux — you will get a pleasant surprise for Christmas with the Keychain release for your OS.
