Protektant: Trusted Sovereign Data Infrastructure for Indigenous Nations and Ethical Consultation

Protektant is a secure, enterprise-grade platform for managing Indigenous Knowledge, consultation rights, and traditional cultural expressions—aligned with WIPO and international legal standards.

Our system is built around the Sovereign Data Bank™ model, giving each Indigenous Nation exclusive custody and control over its data. No data leaves your Nation without your explicit consent. This architecture supports:

  • Bank-grade privacy and masking
  • Indigenous Nations define and enforce their own consultation protocols and participation rules
  • Clear audit trails for all consultation activity

  • Honoraria and royalty-based monetization infrastructure fully operational
  • Governance tools for internal policy, cultural protections, and Indigenous control of revenue streams
