Open-code identity, access, encryption, and governance infrastructure built so no single administrator, server, vendor, or service holds complete authority.
TideCloak gives developers access to Tide's decentralized security architecture, where authority emerges for permitted operations instead of being permanently held in one place.

Traditional identity and security systems ultimately place consequential authority somewhere.
An administrator, application server, identity provider, service account, key vault, or other trusted system has the power to authenticate users, grant access, decrypt data, or perform privileged operations.
Tide takes a different approach.
Using decentralized cryptography, complete authority does not need to reside with any single participant. Instead, authority can be produced when the required identity, policy, context, and intent align for an authorized operation.
We call this Emergent Authority.

Assume an attacker gets in. Make sure there is no complete authority waiting for them when they do.
The quality of your code no longer defines your security.
