Provenance

Provenance

Every MachenTagar output carries a cryptographic provenance chain. This ensures verifiability, defensibility, and trust.

How It Works

1. Creation — Every document, tool output, or research artifact is timestamped at creation
2. Hashing — SHA-256 cryptographic hash computed and logged
3. Chain — Each hash links to the previous, creating an unbroken provenance chain
4. Verification — Any party can independently verify the chain

Standards

• SHA-256 cryptographic hashing
• ISO 8601 timestamps
• PIPEDA-compliant data handling
• Local-first architecture — no cloud dependency for verification
