On a supported platform?
If you run on a wallet platform we already integrate with, recovery is served through that platform. We sit behind the scenes using its native backup and recovery mechanism, so there’s typically nothing for you to build.
If your platform is on this list, talk to your account manager — we handle the integration through the platform.
Not on a supported platform?
If your platform isn’t supported, you integrate with CoinCover directly. There are three ways to do it — pick whichever fits how you operate:Back up a key
Use the API to encrypt key material client-side and store the ciphertext with CoinCover.
Add CoinCover as a backup key
Use the API to make CoinCover a key in your multi-sig set up.
CoinCover CLI
Back up and recover from the command line — no integration code required.
What we always do
Whichever route you take, the protections are the same:Hold encrypted recovery material
Every key pair is generated inside an AWS Nitro Enclave. The private key is held online for HOT keys, or in our offline, geo-redundant vault for COLD keys. We can’t read your recovery material in plaintext, and neither can our staff.
Verify identity at recovery time
Every recovery is gated by identity verification through CoinCover Control. The right person gets your assets back, and no-one else.
Hold the audit trail
Every assignment, every storage operation, every recovery — recorded and retained for the life of the relationship.
Run a 24/7 on-call line
Live support for recovery incidents, whenever they happen.
