Entersec

Custom software, blockchain systems and legacy overhauls

Operating from Santa Monica, California since 2010, Entersec combines custom software development with business consulting. Its work ranges from building new products to overhauling older systems that have fallen behind. The firm says its solutions are designed to help clients earn more.

Start-to-finish custom software for any industry

The firm's custom development service begins with an idea and carries it through to a finished product. It builds custom web applications for any industry, designed around the problem a client needs to solve. The firm also develops custom solutions by modifying third-party products, whether those are open source tools or commercial ones, to meet a client's particular demands. Its services are intended to take in the full cycle, from the first brief through launch and then ongoing evolution and scaling.

Blockchain systems built on open source frameworks

Entersec's blockchain work includes setting up systems on open source frameworks, notably Hyperledger and Multichain, with adjustments made for each client. It also designs and builds self-executing systems on Ethereum, which the firm describes as a way of automating business processes without an intermediary.

Exchange platforms and crypto wallets

A separate line covers the creation of trading platforms and crypto storage services. The firm says its exchange platforms are market making friendly, and it also builds crypto storage services, described as custodial wallets. Work in this area starts with an assessment of technology trends and the market, followed by a proof of concept that is tested before the firm estimates the cost and risk of a full development plan.

The firm cites one of its projects as a custodial wallet and exchange service for cryptocurrencies. The project was presented in web, iOS and Android versions. Beyond basic wallet functions it offered internal currency exchange and exchange through external cryptocurrency exchanges. The firm says the service ran on its own infrastructure of cryptocurrency nodes, without relying on outside services to manage and send transactions. The wallet was built to hold a set of major coins and a range of Ethereum-based tokens. The service earned a commission on each transaction, with the rate set by the system.

Legacy modernization

The firm offers to bring new life to outdated and lagging legacy systems that need an overhaul. The process the firm describes is an assessment of the current system, a plan that weighs cost and risk, then development, launch, evolution, scaling, customer support and planning for replacement once a system reaches the end of its useful life.

Process and how the firm works

Each engagement starts with testing an idea against technology trends and the market before any development is committed. The proof of concept is used to decide whether the full build is worth doing. The firm presents this step-by-step method as its way of keeping risk low, and it applies the same method to new products and to modernizing older ones.
