Justified Access

JAPER Justified Access Protocols are a set of rules and mechanisms that govern the access to encrypted resources within the JAPER ecosystem. These protocols ensure that access to any information in JAPER is based on justified reasons, such as having the appropriate email address validated. The goal of these protocols is to provide a secure and privacy-centric environment for digital interactions while maintaining a high level of data protection.

The Justified Access Protocols are implemented through a combination of the JAPER App and the JAPER API, with the app designed for human users and the API intended for computer systems. The protocols require that all data within JAPER be encrypted in motion and at rest, safeguarding the information from unauthorized access.

Some key features of the JAPER Justified Access Protocols include:

• Authentication: Users and devices must be authenticated using unique identifiers, such as JAPER Device ID and JAPER Application ID, to access the JAPER digital ecosystem.

• Validation: Access to certain resources requires specific validations, such as email address, mobile phone number, or domain name validation, ensuring that only authorized users can access the information.

• Encryption: All data within JAPER is encrypted using advanced encryption techniques, such as AES (Advanced Encryption Standard), ensuring secure storage and transmission of information.

• API and JSON First: The JAPER ecosystem is designed to be API First and JSON First, meaning all functionality is available through the JAPER API and communicated using JSON.

• Zero Trust: Every call to the JAPER API is considered hostile, and access must be justified using bearer tokens, ensuring a robust security posture.

By implementing these protocols, JAPER aims to provide a secure and privacy-focused environment for businesses and customers to interact, share information, and solve complex security problems.
