D-KaP Deploy (part of EpochCore's sealed-evidence product line) seals every production release with the approver, the ticket, and the rollback plan attached. Auditor-ready proof that change control actually happened — not a screenshot of a Jira board taken three months later.
You run in a regulated environment — banking, healthcare, federal, payments — and your auditor wants to see that every production deploy had an approval, a ticket, and a rollback plan tied to it. What you actually have is a Jira board, a Slack channel, and a Git history that nobody can prove wasn't rewritten. When the auditor pulls a sample of 25 deploys from last quarter, three of them have no clear approver and one has a ticket that was closed two days after the release. That single finding is how an unqualified opinion becomes a qualified one.
A drop-in checkpoint that fires at deploy time. You give us four things: the release identifier, the approver's identity, the change-ticket reference, and the rollback plan. We seal those together as a single signed record and hand back a receipt your auditor can verify against the EpochCore root with no call back to us required. You get a tamper-evident chain of deploys that maps cleanly to ITIL change-management controls and to SOC 2 CC8.1.
40668c787c463ca5 — auditor checks offlineAt the end of your existing CD job — right before traffic shifts to the new version — post the four fields (release ID, approver, ticket, rollback plan) to the deploy endpoint. One HTTP call, any language. No agent to install.
Within a second you get back a JSON receipt with the cryptographic signature and a reference to the previous deploy in the chain. Store it next to your build artifacts — or let us retain it for you for seven years at no extra charge.
When the auditor pulls their sample, export the signed receipts for the deploys they care about. They verify the signatures and the chain integrity themselves — no vendor dependency, no "trust us" hand-wave.
Example: A FedRAMP Moderate SaaS provider ships 6–12 changes per week to production. Each GitHub Actions deploy workflow ends with a one-line curl to the deploy endpoint, posting the release tag, the GitHub user who approved the PR, the linked ticket ID, and a one-sentence rollback summary. During the annual 3PAO assessment, the assessor asks for CM-3 evidence on 30 sampled deploys; the SRE exports the matching 30 signed receipts in five minutes. The assessor verifies them offline against the EpochCore root and closes the control with no follow-up.
A dedicated change-management platform with audit-grade evidence runs $20–$60 per developer per month, with a one-year contract and a four-week onboarding. At $59 per release sealed, a 10-deploys-a-week team buys a quarter's worth of auditor-verifiable evidence for under $800 — with no contract, no onboarding, and an export your assessor can verify on their own laptop. One avoided audit finding pays the cost back five hundred times over.
Same signed receipt, plus an invisible mark embedded in the bundle that ties this exact copy back to your EpochCore root. The mark stays attached through screenshots, JPEG compression, scaling, and re-uploads — it survived 90 of 136 measured attack scenarios with zero false positives at image similarity 0.985. Worth it when deploy receipts leave your control (regulator filings, third-party assessments, data-room exports) and you want a way to prove a leaked copy came from you. Not "uncopyable" — someone determined can strip a header — but tamper-evident in all the ways that matter to compliance teams. MEASURED
