Case #SG-204
SealedEncrypted to the safeguarding lead
Opens only with the DSL’s key
What it does
Some records only the right person should ever open.
Sealed disclosures
A disclosure is encrypted to the safeguarding lead’s key — even IT and platform staff cannot read it.
Readership audit
Every time a case is opened, a read record is written — proof, after the fact, that it was handled with care.
Separation of concerns
Pastoral escalation stays distinct from child-protection disclosure, so the sensitive channel is never diluted.
Anonymity preserved
A child can disclose without their identity being exposed to the wider system, by design.
How it works
From start to settled, in three beats.
- 1
Disclose
A concern is raised — severity and category chosen before any sensitive detail is entered.
- 2
Seal
The disclosure is encrypted to the safeguarding lead’s key. Not even IT can read it.
- 3
Account
Every time the case is opened, a read record is written to a tamper-evident trail.
Why it’s different
Only the right person’s key opens it.
Child-protection records demand more than a permissions flag. Disclosures are cryptographically sealed to the safeguarding lead’s role-key, and every read is logged to a tamper-evident trail — a confidentiality moat that meets the bar these records actually require.
Sealed disclosure
encrypted at rest
DSL’s key
the only key that opens it
Not even IT or platform staff hold the key. Every open is written to a read trail.
A cryptographic confidentiality moat that meets the bar for child-protection records.
Built in from the start — the one thing a competitor can’t bolt on later.
The readership trail is the proof of care: a signed record of every access to a sealed case. Handled with gravity, not drama.
