Asset Owner Operations

Asset Owners position their dataset or algorithm assets on their organization’s Access Point, and have full control over who can use their assets.

Positioning Dataset Assets

Positioning an asset is the process of placing your data file inside your own infrastructure's Access Point and indexing that asset on the TripleBlind Router. Positioning assets is the first step toward monetizing your data or training collaborative and distributed algorithms, while also preserving the privacy of your data.

Positioned data never leaves your organization's firewall. TripleBlind never hosts or has access to your data. The only route to your data is through your own Access Point, which is controlled by your organization. You can position your data either through the TripleBlind web interface or the SDK.

There are two primary types of dataset assets, those that are attached via files and those that are attached via databases. Once positioned, the content in a file-based dataset is static once it has been placed on your Access Point. The content in a database-based dataset is dynamic. The fields are always the same, but the number and content of records comes from the database at the time the algorithm is executed.

File-based Datasets

The following sections describe how to position file-based datasets via the web interface and the SDK.

Web Interface

You can use an intuitive web interface to position your datasets. Tabular CSV data is currently supported. Visit the Explore Assets > Position Dataset page and follow the instructions.
