What it is

Azure Key Encryption, Simplified

Enhance Kaleido’s built-in protection of your private key materials with a master encryption key stored in your Azure Key Vault Service.

Increase Security and Meet Compliance Standards

Microsoft processes your keys as FIPS 140-2 Level 2 validated so you can rest assured your data is secured to the highest levels.

Key Management at Your Fingertips

Because Azure supports the ethereum cryptography SECP256k1 curve, Kaleido is able to offload transactions signed to the Azure Key Vault so you can back a Kaleido Managed Wallet by keys —and your keys never have to leave your Azure Key Vault so you retain full control. When the need arises, you can revoke access to Kaleido Managed Wallet at any time.

Create and Import Encryption Keys with Ease

Provision new vaults or import existing keys in minutes all within a centralized place. You can encrypt authentication keys, storage account keys, data encryption keys, passwords and more.

What Is Hyperledger Fabric?

Since launching in 2015, Hyperledger Fabric has been a top choice for enterprises looking to build apps on permissioned blockchain networks. The modular architecture is capable of powering large-scale applications that require enterprise-grade data security.

The ability to protect certain details of peer transactions has made Hyperledger Fabric a go-to protocol for industries like financial services, supply chains, and the insurance industry. It works for complex use cases that involve personally identifiable information and proprietary business data.

Hyperledger Fabric is one of the many protocol choices available on Kaleido. With a full suite of plug and play services, flexible cloud deployment options, and powerful APIs, Kaleido is the easiest way to run a Fabric network anywhere.

Benefits of Hyperledger Fabric

Hyperledger Fabric is an open source project designed to handle enterprise-grade use cases. Key differentiators are its quick transaction throughput and its modularity, allowing for more innovation and optimization regardless of industry use cases. Other benefits include scalability and security, key pillars of any enterprise application.

Modular & Pluggable

Hyperledger Fabric is a modular blockchain framework that allows you to plug in different components, such as consensus algorithms and membership services, and tailor networks to your needs

Open source

Part of the Hyperledger project of the Linux Foundation, Hyperledger Fabric is an open source protocol that allows the enterprise to build custom applications and limit vendor risks

Security

With a high level of security for enterprise users, Fabric uses a permissioned network to prevent unauthorized access

Benefits of Quorum

Quorum is a blockchain protocol specially designed for use in a private blockchain network, where there is only a single member owning all the nodes or a consortium blockchain network where multiple members each own a portion of the network.

Scalability

Quorum is designed to be highly scalable, with low transaction latencies and the ability to support a higher number of transactions per second than other blockchain protocols. This makes it well-suited for use in high-volume applications.

Security

Quorum includes a number of security features that are designed to protect sensitive or proprietary data, like private transactions that allow network participants to transact without revealing the details of their transactions to the rest of the network.

Flexibility

Quorum is based on the Ethereum protocol and can support a wide range of decentralized applications and smart contracts. It is also highly modular and customizable so that it can be tailored to the needs of specific use cases.

Gas-free transactions

There is no cost required to submit transactions to a Quorum network, unlike Ethereum, which requires the payment of high and unpredictable gas fees to submit transactions.

How it works

How it Works

Azure Key Vault provides hardware security modules (HSM) that are maintained in the Azure Cloud. This allows clients total control of their cryptographic materials in hardware and firmware without being exposed to any operators including Microsoft. Using an HSM based keys management provides the highest level of security.

Kaleido CloudHSM service supports using keys maintained by Azure Key Vault to sign transactions. The Kaleido service communicates with Azure Key Vault via HTTP over TLS to discover the list of signing accounts and sending it payload to sign. During the entire process the signing keys stay safe inside the customer's Azure Key Vault instance and are never shared with Kaleido.

Create a Key Vault in Azure

Create one or more keys in the vault that can be used to sign Ethereum transactions

Create and configure a Kaleido CloudHSM signer service which has the ability to interact with the Key Vault in Azure to sign and send transactions to an Ethereum node in the Kaleido environment.

Create & Configure Key Vault in Azure

Azure Key Vault is backed by FIPS 140-2 Level 2 certified HSMs keeping your keys secure. The first step is to provision a Key Vault in Azure and generate secp256k1 keys suitable for signing Ethereum transactions.

Enterprise Use Cases
Run Better on Kaleido

Hyperledger Fabric is a private blockchain that allows developers to create subnets, or channels, meaning that certain proprietary or personal information can remain confidential. This makes Fabric a protocol of choice for industries like financial services, insurance, and supply chain management.

Supply Chains

Hyperledger Fabric networks can increase transparency and traceability of transactions within the network. This transparency can be used to monitor real-time location data, limit fraud and counterfeit goods, and track ESG efforts.

Digital Assets

Complex multi-party business networks built on Fabric can easily tokenize assets, transact instantly, share data, and eliminate cumbersome paperwork as financial business flows are automated.

Insurance

Moving insurance transactions to blockchain can eliminate fraud, automate claim processing, and digitize legacy systems. Hyperledger Fabric also allows stakeholders to automate Know Your Customer (KYC) processes via smart contracts.
