Today, Paystand launched the first Assurety-as-a-Service solution, allowing any business to deploy scalable blockchain networks and applications in minutes. Using the Assurety API, customers can create a digitally notarized record trail that is secure, certified, and fully auditable without the need for a trusted, central authority; developers can use Paystand’s hybrid blockchain platform to rapidly deploy applications that can verify any event, action, or identity in real-time.
“Assurety-as-a-Service lets businesses skip the steep learning curve and start using blockchain right now,” said Jeremy Almond, Paystand CEO. “Unlike other blockchain companies, we’ve actually been testing the use of an enterprise blockchain at scale for over four years with real customers. This is an important step in adding greater transparency to the financial system and the world at large. Ten years from now, I can’t imagine a single business that won’t be using blockchain technology.”
Paystand’s hybrid blockchain innovates on existing public and permissioned blockchain implementations to make it simple for customers to build immutable proof into their applications without any prior experience with blockchain technology.
The Assurety platform marries the benefits of both public and private blockchains by delivering the accountability of the public model, while still maintaining the data privacy of the permissioned model. This solves the inherent challenge of delivering a secure, trustless network while still balancing against collusion between the network actors themselves. The result is an application-ready solution that helps companies affordably and securely address the challenges of establishing provenance, authentication, and reconciliation with speed and accuracy.
“Assurety’s hybrid blockchain bridges the gap between public and private, combining the advantages of a trustless, decentralized, immutable public chain with the privacy and security expected of enterprise-level solutions,” said Omar Baqueiro, Director of Product and Engineering. “Assurety does that while making it easier than ever for businesses to use blockchain technology today. Any developer can use our API and spin up their own blockchain app in minutes.”
