# ROOTKey Documentation

> Enterprise cyber resilience infrastructure - blockchain-backed data integrity, validation, and audit trail APIs for critical systems.

## What is ROOTKey?

ROOTKey is an enterprise cyber resilience platform that ensures the integrity, authenticity, and auditability of critical data through blockchain and zero-knowledge proof technology.

Organisations use ROOTKey to anchor data to the Polygon blockchain, creating tamper-evident, independently verifiable records - without trusting any single party for validation. The platform operates within a zero-trust model: neither the data owner nor ROOTKey can alter a record once it has been anchored.

ROOTKey is infrastructure. It integrates into existing systems - through REST APIs, MQTT, containers, or on-premise deployments - and adds a cryptographic trust layer to data that already matters to your organisation.
