Case Study: a major U.S.-based global banking group advances secure digital asset custody with Halborn

a major U.S.-based global banking group advances from PoC to production with Halborn

A major U.S.-based global banking group sought to create an enterprise-grade digital asset custody platform but faced security challenges in its regulated environment. The bank engaged Halborn for its DLT Architecture Advisory service to validate its architectural proof-of-concept, which used customized HSMs and MPC protocols, and to ensure it met internal controls and external audit standards.

Halborn assessed the bank's key generation, storage, and transaction signing workflows. They provided modular security patterns and acted as a security co-pilot, offering recommendations on cryptographic architecture. This partnership enabled the bank to safely advance from proof-of-concept to production with a well-tested architecture and built a unified security culture, allowing them to pursue digital asset innovation without sacrificing trust or regulatory readiness.
