ETIP - EsReal® Trust Integrity Protocol
Making trust verifiable rather than assumable. Via cryptographic proof for domains and links - objective, publicly verifiable, without a central authority.
Making trust verifiable
Classical internet security protects the connection. ETIP answers the question that remains after that.
TLS/HTTPS protects the transport. SPF, DKIM and DMARC filter email. But none of these technologies answer the question that truly matters:
"Can this domain or link be cryptographically verified?"
ETIP solves that. The protocol links domains and links to publicly verifiable cryptographic proof - independent of DNS providers, email providers or browsers.
vDOMAIN
Domain authenticity via whitelist and external anchoring.
vURL
Integrity and origin of public links and documents.
µAPI
Machine verification: the same check via JSON for systems.
Anchors
Publicly verifiable integrity anchoring - optionally via blockchain.
What does ETIP solve?
ETIP is sector-neutral and focuses on four concrete problems that classical security leaves unsolved.
Phishing
When "it looks real" is no longer enough. ETIP makes forged communications technically visible - attacks do not lead to a trusted outcome.
Look-alike domains
Subdomain spoofing, fake domains and QR phishing are directly detectable. A domain without verification is a domain without proof.
Secure link sharing
Via email, SMS, WhatsApp, PDF or QR code - the vURL proves by itself who it comes from. The recipient does not need to trust anyone.
Verifiable documents
Certificates, reports, datasets and public documents are independently verifiable - even without direct contact with the issuer.
What ETIP does not claim
- - Not "unhackable"
- - Not an identity or login platform
- - No guarantee that attacks never occur
- - No control over the content of communications
Three layers, one protocol
vDOMAIN, vURL and µAPI are the three pillars of ETIP. Together they cover domains, links and system integration.
Domain authenticity
Domains are not trusted because they look right. They are trusted when they are explicitly listed in the EsReal® whitelist and their hash is publicly externally anchored.
More about vDOMAINLink integrity
Links and documents become verifiable through a cryptographic signature and a deterministic hash. Any change results in a different verification outcome.
More about vURLMachine verification
The same verification is available for systems via JSON. Add &json=true to a vURL and receive a full verification response.
ETIP in one sentence
ETIP makes trust verifiable rather than assumable - by linking domains and links to cryptographic proof.
Verification > Assumption
Trust based on proof, not based on appearance or reputation.
Publicly verifiable
No black box. Anyone can reproduce the same result, independently of EsReal®.
Protocol independent
Works on top of HTTP, HTTPS, SMS, PDF and QR - not tied to a single channel or provider.
No user identity
No tracking, no login, no personal data of recipients. ETIP verifies information, not people.
