Rivetz Partners with CRIP.TO to Enable Interoperability Between Hardware Security Solutions

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 8, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- CES / Coinagenda -- Rivetz Corp. (https://rivetz.com/) today announced a partnership with CRIP.TO (https://crip.to) to enable interoperability between CRIP.TO devices and the Rivetz Trusted Application. The collaboration will ensure that secure messages can be sent between devices and that secure key management can be performed within the trust boundaries of two devices, providing users with a flexible solution that can enhance the security and usability of their collection of devices. Integrity and key recovery enable new models of decentralized security for messages and cryptocurrency transactions for the financial, consumer, and industrial markets.

CRIP.TO focuses on the communications side of the security and privacy equation. Its Black hardware device is the TEE equivalent of encrypted communications. With its custom-made FPGA chip and open standard encryption system, Black provides a second protected execution environment through which communications and data are encrypted and prepared for transmission. Through the integration on the blockchain, it is working to create a secure Open Network. The network will be opened to third-party developers to allow them to add their own apps, allowing them to also take advantage of the end-to-end encryption. Taken together, CRIP.TO Black and Rivetz-enhanced CRIP.TO Shield (an Android App) will allow users unparalleled security and identity protection for all their internet and mobile interactions.

"We are pleased to be working with CRIP.TO to support the full spectrum of hardware security for blockchain and secure messaging," Rivetz CEO Steven Sprague said. "The enhanced security that is provided by dedicated hardware offers owners the best levels of protection. The business and operational models of security provided by Rivetz and the RvT token can be extended to a variety of devices, and we are dedicated to supporting the full spectrum of capabilities."

"We're thrilled to be integrating CRIP.TO and Rivetz's technologies, recognizing the need for transactional and communication security and privacy on smart devices," CRIP.TO CEO Stefano Alberico said. "We each bring hardware-enabled solutions to meet this need."
