iKentoo POS secures data with blockchain technology

Blockchain technology for the restaurant industry

The world's first iPad POS system to secure data with blockchain
iKentoo, the Swiss company specializing in high-performance iPad cash registers, has created the world's first POS system to use blockchain technology. In its new iKentoo 3.0 version, the startup has chosen this technology to give its customers the highest possible level of data security.

Why use blockchain?
Applying blockchain technology to traditional sectors is becoming increasingly popular. Its many advantages in terms of data and transaction security make it an asset for any growing business. That is why iKentoo SA decided to develop its own private blockchain protocol, in order to guarantee the highest level of security to its restaurateur customers.

NF525 certification and ISO 25051
The new version of iKentoo 3.0 is built entirely on blockchain technology and perfectly illustrates iKentoo's policy, in which security is at the heart of every operation. iKentoo 3.0 has also obtained the NF525 certification, which guarantees that its POS software complies with the tax requirements of the French Finance Act, as well as the international ISO 25051 certification, which recognizes the quality of the sound management processes of software publishing companies.

How blockchain works in iKentoo 3.0
In iKentoo 3.0, all operations performed on the registers and on the management platform, the Back-Office, are stored in data blocks via a private cryptographic data storage and transfer protocol. These blocks are then signed and linked together to form a chain that makes it possible to trace every action and go back to the device that originated the transaction. No element of the chain can be modified without affecting the integrity of the sequence of blocks, which ensures that the data cannot be altered.
