Proof of Origin

XYO’s Proof of Origin verifies that data has not been altered from it's original location or source. It traces the journey it takes, and can verify whether it has been changed. This provides a reliable record that helps organizations make decisions based on accurate information.

Traceability across systems

Data produced by IoT devices can be traced through storage systems, APIs, and smart contracts. This creates a clear chain of custody, making data easier to use and confirm.

Data quality and partnerships

Sharing verified and auditable data improves reliability and builds trust with partners. Proof of Origin provides a way to certify the quality of data exchanged within an ecosystem.

Use case: smart agriculture

Farms using IoT sensors for soil, moisture, and weather data can confirm that information comes directly from the field. This supports irrigation planning, crop forecasting, and resource management.

Three Modes of Verification

XYO offers multiple, overlapping modes of data origin verification to meet different operational needs.

Data Heuristic Verification

Ideal for time-sensitive applications, this method uses real-time algorithms to assess the credibility of incoming data. It evaluates multiple data points to confirm consistency and integrity before the data reaches critical systems.

Bound Witness Validation

Bound Witness pairs data from different sources in real time, confirming interactions and proximity between devices. This is especially useful in environments where confirming collaboration or physical interaction is essential.

Secure Post-Processing Analytics

For use cases that require deep historical validation, this method offers thorough post-processing analysis. It supports compliance, audits, and forensic review, making it well-suited for industries like healthcare, logistics, and finance.
