Security & Custody

Production controls
for a regulated rail.

What follows are LiquiCo's production security targets — the controls that must be in place before any live investor funds are accepted. Today's demo simulates the rails client-side; the security stack described here provisions them for real.

This is a pre-seed demonstration

The controls below are our production security targets. Certifications and audits are completed — and partner contracts signed — before any live investor funds are accepted on the platform.

01
Certifications

Production targets for the regulated platform. Not yet certified — completed before any live investor funds are accepted.

  • SOC 2 Type IITARGET

    Continuous control attestation across security, availability, and confidentiality.

  • ISO 27001TARGET

    Information security management system across all engineering and operations.

  • ISO 27017 — Cloud securityTARGET

    Cloud-specific controls layered on top of ISO 27001.

  • ISO 27018 — PII in the cloudTARGET

    Personally identifiable information protections aligned with DPDP.

02
Custody

Institutional-grade key management — no single human or machine can move funds.

  • MPC custody (Fireblocks / BitGo-class)

    Multi-party computation; private keys never exist whole.

  • 4-of-7 multi-sig

    Quorum spread across separated geographies and roles.

  • HSM-protected keys + policy engine

    Hardware security modules; transfer policies enforced at the signer.

  • Withdrawal allowlists

    Funds can only move to pre-approved, address-pinned destinations.

  • Air-gapped cold storage

    Treasury reserves held offline; ceremony-based access only.

  • Social recovery via nominee

    Managed wallets recoverable through a nominee — not a recovery phrase.

03
Smart-contract security

ERC-3643 / T-REX implementations audited before and after every material change.

  • Two independent audits (CertiK / Trail of Bits / Hacken-class)

    Sequential audits with public reports before mainnet issuance.

  • Re-audit on every material change

    No code path reaches production without a fresh review.

  • Public bug-bounty program

    Tiered payouts — critical findings rewarded materially.

  • Formal verification on critical modules

    Mathematical proofs on the compliance engine and transfer gate.

04
Application & infrastructure security

Hardened from the source code to the cloud edge.

  • Periodic VAPT / penetration testing

    Annual third-party penetration tests and quarterly internal red-team exercises.

  • Secure SDLC

    Threat modelling, SAST/DAST, signed builds, reproducible deploys.

  • Secrets management

    Vault-backed secrets; no plaintext credentials in code or CI.

  • Least-privilege access

    Just-in-time elevation; every production action audit-logged.

  • Encrypted at rest + in transit

    TLS 1.3 everywhere; AES-256 for stored data and backups.

05
Regulatory & data

Indian regulatory obligations are first-class — not afterthoughts.

  • CERT-In incident reporting

    Incidents reported within 6 hours of detection, per CERT-In directives.

  • DPDP Act 2023 breach notification

    Detailed report within 72 hours; user notification per Board guidance.

  • India data-localisation

    KYC, V-CIP, and lending data stored within India.

  • PMLA / FIU-IND reporting

    Designated principal officer; STR / CTR reporting workflow.

  • Sanctions / PEP screening

    Continuous OFAC, EU, UN, MEA, and PEP screening on every wallet.

06
Asset assurance

Investors can independently verify that what is on-chain matches what is held.

  • Proof-of-Reserve attestations

    Signed by the independent custodian on a defined cadence.

  • On-chain ↔ RTA register reconciliation

    The statutory register at the SEBI-registered RTA reconciles to the on-chain registry.

  • Independent trustee oversight

    Debenture / investor trustee co-signs every waterfall release.

07
Insurance

A backstop layer for the events controls are designed to prevent.

  • Digital-asset crime & custody insuranceTARGET

    Coverage for theft, internal collusion, and key-material loss.

  • Per-investor coverage targetTARGET

    Illustrative ₹5 Cr per managed wallet — finalised at provisioning.

Reporting a vulnerability

The public bug-bounty program opens with mainnet issuance. Until then, please disclose responsibly to security@liquico-io.com with steps to reproduce. We respond within 48 hours.
