Custody Integration & Operating Model Review
Design custody integrations and review how they operate in production.
Security design and production review for organizations integrating or already operating custody platforms and key-management systems such as Fireblocks, Fordefi, BitGo, Taurus, Anchorage, Coinbase Prime, Copper, internal MPC/HSM systems, and similar custody infrastructure.
Discuss custody integration reviewA custody platform integration is not just an API connection. It defines how digital value is stored, moved, approved, monitored, recovered, and governed. For new integrations, Guvenkaya helps teams design and review the custody integration model before launch. For production integrations, Guvenkaya reviews how custody is used in practice across architecture, workflows, roles, approvals, signing policies, API integrations, operational procedures, recovery paths, vendor dependencies, and governance.
