Build with CDR

Confidential Data Rails (CDR) lets you encrypt, store, and control access to confidential data on the DATA Foundation using @piplabs/cdr-sdk.

Install the SDK and initialize a client on Aeneid testnet.

Encrypt & Decrypt

Encrypt a secret or file and recover it through threshold decryption.
See the CDR SDK Reference for method parameters and examples.

DATA Network Infra

See Network Info for RPC, explorer, and faucet information. Use the Blockscout API for network statistics and the Consensus Client API for node queries.
