MPC is not a private key split into pieces that get put back together. The distinction decides what the infrastructure has to protect, so it is worth being precise about.
All infrastructure delivered through Terraform and Terragrunt modules with encrypted remote state, state versioning, locking, drift detection and reviewed plans. Infrastructure security scanning and policy-as-code guardrails block prohibited network, identity, encryption and public-access configurations in the pipeline. Every change has a reviewed forward plan and a recovery plan, and stateful rollback uses tested restore or roll-forward rather than destroy and recreate.
Engineering judgement
Highlighted disciplines are used on this engagement. This page covers the custody infrastructure part of that list. The onboarding, financial crime and banking operations work sits in the same practice, with the same team.
Our financial services work is organised around the regulated disciplines below rather than around a technology stack. The highlighted ones are used directly on this engagement.
MPC custody uses Multi-Party Computation (MPC) to distribute control of cryptographic signing across multiple parties or components, reducing reliance on a single private key or signing point.
MPC signer infrastructure provides the systems and operational environment required to securely run MPC-based signing components and support digital asset transactions.
DevOps practices help automate deployment, infrastructure management, monitoring, testing and operational processes around MPC custody infrastructure while maintaining controlled and repeatable releases
MPC custody infrastructure requires strong controls around access, deployment, secrets, monitoring and operational processes because it supports systems involved in digital asset signing.
CI/CD can automate software build, testing and deployment processes, helping teams deliver controlled infrastructure and application changes consistently.
Infrastructure as Code allows infrastructure configuration to be defined and managed through version-controlled code, improving repeatability, traceability and consistency across environments.
Monitoring helps teams observe infrastructure and application behaviour, identify operational issues and support timely investigation and response.
Institutional organisations operating digital asset infrastructure can use MPC custody and DevOps practices to support secure, controlled and scalable digital asset operations.
