Local microSD + encrypted cloud: data can't be touched

Each reading is written on write-only local microSD and replicated on AES-256 encrypted cloud. Archive kept minimum 12 months (extendable to 5 years). Digital signature and timestamp on each record: data is not modifiable, even by the administrator.

Regulatory references: GDPR Reg. UE 2016/679 · AGID linee guida conservazione
● In the field

"A tamper-proof archive is your lifeline during inspection: ASL doesn't argue with digitally signed data."

What it is

Cold Care's archive module is the system's "memory": every minute, every reading from every sensor is written in two independent copies:

• Local: industrial-grade microSD configured write-once (data not overwritten or erased).
• Remote: cloud server AES-256 encrypted, EU ISO 27001 datacenter, geographic replication.

Each record contains: official timestamp, sensor ID, measured value, sensor status, SHA-256 digital signature. An altered record loses its valid signature = unusable in court.

References

• EU Reg. 852/2004 – HACCP documentation kept and available to authorities.
• EC Reg. 178/2002 – food chain traceability.
• GDPR Reg. EU 2016/679 – personal data protection.
• AGID Guidelines on conformant document conservation in Italy.
• eIDAS Reg. EU 910/2014 – legally valid electronic signatures.

Data recognised by: ASL, NAS, Forest Carabinieri, Health Police, Courts (in litigation) and IFS/BRC/FSSC 22000 auditors.

Who needs it

For all Cold Care clients, critical for: retail supplying own-brand perishables (direct recall liability), pharmacies managing vaccines and AIFA drugs, food industries under IFS/BRC/FSSC 22000 audits (temperature trend sampling is mandatory), healthcare (blood, plasma, vaccine storage), corporate catering and school canteens with public contracts (specifications require tamper-proof traceability).

In litigation (e.g. accusation of out-of-cold-chain product sale): the Cold Care report with digital signature is direct evidence in court.

Our approach

Setup: initial write frequency configuration (default 1 min, configurable 30 sec - 5 min), customer user creation on online portal, retention policy definition (12 months standard, up to 5 years on request).

Web customer portal with: historical view by sensor/cell/period, signed PDF export for ASL inspection, Excel/CSV export for internal analysis, real-time dashboard, access log.

Multi-user with roles: administrator, HACCP manager, operator, read-only, inspector (temporary control account).

Automatic weekly backup, monthly integrity check with report to all customers. Full data export at contract end: no technological "lock-in".
