Tech & Security — The settlement layer you can prove
VGoS turns event streams into provably correct payouts. Deterministic by design, privacy-first, and built with controls that keep money from moving unless the math and evidence agree.

Architecture snapshot
Governance Core
Ledger & budgeting, withdrawal governor (state machine), fixed-point arithmetic, and canonical transaction ordering for byte-identical outcomes across replays and shards.
Privacy & Usage (feature-flagged)
Differential privacy via verifiable randomness with deterministic replay and privacy budgets— auditors can reconstruct noise without seeing raw data.
Fraud & Attribution (feature-flagged)
Lineage tracking, rule/ML gates with bounded fallbacks, reason-coded holds, and transcripted evidence so good users aren’t punished by global freezes.
Predictive & Control (feature-flagged)
Liquidity forecasting with graduated response curves and circuit breakers. If predictions fail, we gracefully degrade to reactive without losing determinism.
Cross-Platform & Rails
Multi-chain header verification, custody proofs, and platform adapters. We sit above existing processors/rails—no rip-and-replace.
Audit Transcripts
Immutable, privacy-first transcripts (content-addressed digests). Auditors verify math and approvals without raw PII.
Security posture (by default)
Identity & Access
- SSO/SAML/OIDC · RBAC · MFA
- Least privilege service accounts
- Per-tenant policy isolation
Data Protection
- TLS 1.3 in transit · AES-256 at rest
- Key rotation · Vault-managed secrets
- PII minimization (digests over raw)
Operations & Compliance
- Immutable audit logs · tamper-evident
- Monitoring/alerting, tracing, SLOs
- SOC2/PCI alignment · GDPR/CCPA ready
What makes VGoS different
Determinism + Privacy (co-designed)
We add privacy without breaking audit determinism. Verifiable randomness enables reconstructable, deterministic noise—so privacy and auditability reinforce each other, not conflict.
For engineers
VRF/DRBG per-epoch seeds in transcripts; bucket-indexed streams; null-noise mode for incremental rollout.
Predictive that can’t break you
Forecasts help stability, but never at the expense of correctness. If models misbehave, we auto-revert to reactive mode with identical outputs for the same inputs.
For engineers
Horizon→0 limit equals reactive governor; circuit breakers; fixed-point arithmetic preserves replay identity.
Compatibility-preserving features
Advanced features can be toggled on without changing core outcomes. That means safer migrations, simpler conformance, and byte-identity with legacy behavior when needed.
For engineers
Feature-orthogonality with a compatibility layer; transcript determinism; tie-breakers using deterministic public randomness.

Quick start (JS/TS SDK)
// 1) install
npm install @vgs/settlement-sdk
// 2) init
const vgos = new VGoS({ apiKey: 'pk_test_...', mode: 'core' });
// 3) submit a redemption
const redemption = await vgos.redemptions.create({
userId: 'user_123',
amount: 1000, // in cents
currency: 'USD',
metadata: { source: 'creator_earnings' }
});
// 4) check status
const status = await vgos.redemptions.get(redemption.id);
// optional: enable privacy/fraud/predictive as you mature
vgos.configure({ privacy: { enabled: true, epsilon: 1.0, delta: 1e-6 } });
vgos.configure({ fraud: { enabled: true, adaptiveThresholds: true, fallbackToStatic: true } });
vgos.configure({ predictive: { horizon: 3, gradualResponse: true, circuitBreaker: true } });
Deployment models
SaaS (primary)
Hosted multi-tenant with per-transaction pricing; fastest time-to-value.
Private Cloud
Dedicated VPC deployment for enterprise isolation and data residency.
Hybrid
Core services SaaS; sensitive data/DP on customer-controlled infra.
On-Premise
Licensed software for the most regulated environments.
