Verified clients. Screened transactions. Records protected.

Every AUD AER client is verified before they can mint or redeem a single token — and the verification engine that does it, AerKYC, is built by Aeredium itself.

Client verification with AerKYC

AerKYC verifies people and companies in seconds against authoritative government and commercial databases — official company registries, the global LEI network, government identity systems and consolidated sanctions lists. It is a thorough KYC: the identification record is sealed with quantum-resistant AES-256 encryption before it is stored, kept for the seven years the law requires, and automatically disposed of when that period ends. Every access to a record is itself recorded. What the relying business receives is cryptographically signed evidence that can be defended in an audit, and a private on-chain attestation that proves "verified" without exposing identity.

How a client is onboarded

1. Check. Individuals (KYC) and companies (KYB) are cross-referenced against official registries, the global LEI network, government identity databases and consolidated sanctions and PEP lists — in parallel, in seconds.
2. Sign. The result is a verdict with machine-readable reason codes and a cryptographically signed evidence bundle that any third party — including a regulator — can verify against published keys.
3. Retain. The identification record is sealed with quantum-resistant AES-256 encryption and kept for the seven years the law requires, then automatically disposed of. Every read of a record is logged in an append-only audit trail.
4. Attest. A private on-chain attestation binds the client's wallet to "verified" — tier, expiry and a cryptographic commitment. The AUD AER contracts gate minting and redemption on it. No identity data ever touches the chain.

Sanctions and PEP screening

Screening against consolidated global sanctions lists and politically-exposed-person databases happens at onboarding and on an ongoing basis — not as a one-time gate. Because verification attestations carry an expiry, clients are re-screened as attestations renew, and a client whose status changes can be restricted the moment the change is known.

AML/CTF enforced in hardware

Aeredium's AML/CTF obligations — enrolment with AUSTRAC, transaction monitoring and reporting — are backed by an enforcement layer conventional issuers cannot offer. Sanctions screening, blocklists, transaction limits and freeze orders execute inside the TEE enclaves, within the sealed contract logic itself. No operator, employee or attacker can bypass, selectively apply or quietly disable them — the hardware attestation proves the exact code that ran. When AUSTRAC or a court requires an account frozen, the freeze is enforced by silicon on every chain AUD AER touches.

Privacy and compliance, together

AUD AER clients are fully verified and screened, and their records are protected accordingly: identity information is encrypted with quantum-resistant cryptography before it reaches the database, every access is audited, and records are automatically disposed of when the statutory retention period ends. Supervision can rely on signed, independently verifiable evidence alongside disciplined, lawful record-keeping.
