OUR TENETS

1.

Freedom First

We hold that all decisions shall be made on the basis of maximizing personal freedom for individuals.

2.

Hidden Information is the Basis of Personal Freedom

We hold that to be free, information must be hidden and secured. Hidden from governments, from the general public, from your friends, from your family, from us, and from yourself. A subconscious is by definition hidden; it’s what gives us free will—or at least the perception of it.

3.

Personal Freedom Enables Individual Agency

We hold that individual people with agency positively affect their communities. That in order for individuals to exercise agency, they must first secure their personal freedom.

4.

Healthy Communities Enable Effective Individuals

We hold that no individual is an island; that humanity as a whole is improved by improving geographically distinct communities. The Latin roots of the word community translate to “together, we serve”. Our mission is to enable individuals to better serve their communities via trustful transactions.

Your Post-Quantum Secure Fortress

Locke is built using XChaCha, Crystals Kyber, and Shamir’s Secret Sharing to create a completely post-quantum secure fortress for you to store your passwords.

ROADMAP

GOAL: a decentralized identity network of peers who authenticate each other.

On the Internet you must trust someone. The goal of our federated identity network is to allow you to determine who it is you trust.

1.

Preliminary Research

Whitepaper complete (draft 1) 75%

Published the first draft of our whitepaper, more research to be done but the bones of the project have been established. Read it

2.

Build a User Interface to Drive Adoption

Getting there... 55%

Build an app that enables people to become masters of their digital identity. Passwords, files, emails, bookmarks, analytics, and end-to-end encrypted social recovery. Register now.

3.

Iterate & Security Audit

Yet to start

Both the technical specifications for the identity network and for Locke ID will require a third-party security audit.

4.

Federated Access via Gateway Nodes

Yet to start

After Locke ID and the identity network infrastructure is validated in the market, build and deploy the first gateway nodes to federate access to the network. Create a waitlist for early adopters who want to host their own identity.

5.

Open Network, Locke ID Becomes Free

Yet to start

Once our technology has been validated, we will make Locke ID free. There will be a premium subscription to fund further development, but anyone will be able to own their digital identity completely for free.

How you can help:

Our goal is lofty and there is a lot of work required to get there. The most traversable path sometimes has many switchbacks. To navigate unfriendly terrain we cut back and forth in order to avoid a steep gradient. You can help forge ahead by (1) becoming a customer (2) investing or (3) giving us earnest feedback.

Secure Your Life Online

End-to-end encrypted

Locke end-to-end encrypts all your passwords so that no one, not even us, can see them. Even the social recovery process is end-to-end encrypted for uncompromising security.

"Securely" share passwords

Unlike Netflix we want you to share passwords. While sharing passwords is never ideal, it’s something we all do. Instead of sending plaintext secrets you should use quickshare.

Don't be the weak link

Locke protects everyone. While baby boomers have the most to lose by getting hacked (an average of $1700 per incident), Generation Z is the demographic most likely to get hacked.

Social Recovery

Emails are for emails, not password resets.

By using your email account as a source of identity, you put all your eggs in that basket. If your email gets hacked all of your accounts can be reset.

Instead of having all your password eggs in your email basket, we think you should distribute your eggs among family members. This greatly increases your online security by protecting you against phishing attacks that send phony password reset emails.
