Trokt stores Thumbprints of sensitive documents in its distributed network. A thumbprint is a cryptographic hash number that determines a documents authenticity, at the time you applied the hash number. Demonstrating that a file’s Thumbprint is held in Trokt’s network proves – in nearly any court – that the file has not been modified in any way since the date and time it appeared in the Trokt network.
Every file that can be instantly proven valid – or invalid – by Trokt reduces the need for costly forensic analyses. Storing file Thumbprints for rapid validation reduces the time and cost of compliance audits or incident response and forensics efforts.
All Trokt file Thumbprinting processes occur on the machines that hold the sensitive files. No sensitive file is opened or held by Trokt. The only data that is sent to Trokt about a sensitive file is the irreversible file Thumbprint.
