Security
Advanced Key Management
At Oumla, we understand that key security is paramount in blockchain development. Our managed infrastructure solution employs cutting-edge security practices to protect your private and public keys, allowing you to focus on building your application with peace of mind.
Hybrid Key Management Model
Oumla utilizes a robust hybrid model for key management, enhancing security through key splitting:
Oumla Share: One part of the key remains with you, the client. We call this the "Oumla Share."
Oumla-Managed Share: Another part is securely stored by Oumla.
Third-Party Share: The final part is entrusted to a reliable third party.
This three-way split ensures that no single entity has complete control over the keys, significantly reducing the risk of unauthorized access or compromise.
Client Responsibilities
As a client, you play a crucial role in maintaining the security of your Oumla Share:
Upon registration, you'll receive a PDF document containing your Oumla Share.
You must store this file in a secure location, such as an encrypted drive or a physical safe.
Implement proper access controls to ensure only authorized personnel can access the Oumla Share.
Regularly review and update your security measures to protect this critical information.
Operational Requirements
Your Oumla Share is essential for various blockchain operations:
Generating new addresses
Signing transactions
Other key-dependent functions
You'll need to provide your Oumla Share securely when performing these operations through our platform.
Security Best Practices
To further enhance the security of your Oumla Share:
Use strong, unique passwords for any systems storing the share.
Implement multi-factor authentication where possible.
Regularly back up your Oumla Share, ensuring backups are also securely stored.
Establish a clear protocol for share access within your organization.
