Digital Asset Initiative

We've joined forces with CPA/RIA, Tod Arbutina, to revolutionize 3rd party risk management. We believe that all custodians of client PII have a fiduciary duty. A SOC II is not enough, and most firms are not adequately evaluating vendor risk. It's too cumbersome and time-consuming, both for firms the vendors. We aim to make it easy for firms to perform their fiduciary duty with a centralized platform, a standardized, transparent score, and certification offerings for firms, vendors and professionals.
