Platform Security
The Hinzia Digital Trust Engine is built on bank-grade infrastructure designed to protect every transaction, every identity, and every record across the ecosystem.
Building trust requires foundational security. The Hinzia Digital Trust Engine and underlying marketplace architecture utilize bank-grade security protocols across identity, data, and access management.
TLS 1.3 in transit
All data moving between app, dashboards, and APIs is encrypted with modern transport security.
AES-256 at rest
Historical farming records and identity data are encrypted on storage with strong key management.
Immutable audit trail
Verifications, bids, and trust score recalculations are written to tamper-evident logs.
Role-based access
Strict RBAC means agents, buyers, and banks only see the data they are authorised to see.
Encryption Standards
All data transmitted across the ecosystem (mobile app to server, partner APIs, web dashboards) is encrypted in transit using TLS 1.3. Data at rest is secured via AES-256 encryption, ensuring immutability of historical farming records.
Identity & Access Management
- Strict role-based access control (RBAC) ensures village agents cannot view bulk financial portfolio data belonging to banks.
- Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is enforced for all institutional profiles — buyers, exporters, and SACCOs.
- Session controls and device binding reduce credential reuse risk on shared rural devices.
Immutable Audit Trails
Crucial actions — village agent verifications, marketplace bids, and trust score recalculations — generate immutable log entries. This cryptographic traceability ensures no single actor can alter the historical context of a farmer's yield records.
Vulnerability Disclosures
We regularly undergo third-party penetration testing. If you are a security researcher who has discovered a vulnerability in the Hinzia ecosystem, please responsibly disclose it to security@hinzia.com.
