What kind of encryption does EMOZ use for customer data?

There are two layers:

  1. Public data stored on-chain:

    • File hash (SHA-256)

    • Timestamp (issue date)

    • Algorithm used (e.g. SHA-256)

  2. Encrypted metadata:

    • Includes full name, a legal declaration, email (hashed), and source (“emoz.io”)

    • Email is hashed first with SHA-256, then encrypted using XSalsa20-Poly1305 with a unique 32-byte key per certificate

    • Metadata is only decryptable with a secret seed stored in the user’s PDF certificate

This layered design guarantees privacy, even as computing power continues to advance.
