Consent as an object. Registered artefacts with purpose, data class, scope and validity windows - expired or mismatched consent blocks the job, with the reason on the audit trail.
Withdrawal cascades. A customer withdrawing consent revokes every live certificate it issued, automatically and traceably.
Grievance redressal. A data principal can file against any certificate; resolution is tracked against a published 72-hour SLA, breaches flagged.
CERT-In reporting. Security incidents produce a report artefact inside the 6-hour window, linked to the affected certificates.
Disaster recovery. Point-in-time integrity-hashed snapshots replicate to a second attested node - a replica that cannot reproduce the state hash is rejected. Restore drills re-verify certificates from the replica and measure RPO and RTO; a drill that cannot re-verify every certificate FAILs. Every step is hash-chained to the ledger.
Hardware attestation. Every node holds an Ed25519 keypair (simulated TPM); certificates carry node + shield signatures; keys rotate with full history.
Offline resilience. A node going offline queues its jobs; the queue drains when it returns - no lost work, no silent gaps.
