End-to-end Decentralized.\n---\n\n# Introduction to TACo\n\nTACo (**T**hreshold **A**ccess/**Action** **Co**ntrol) is a decentralized cryptographic infrastructure layer that enforces policies over who can (1) **access** or (2) **act on** sensitive data. TACo's array of independently-controlled nodes collectively validate that pre-specified conditions are satisfied, before providing the decryption material or signature for subsequent access or action respectively. Hence cryptographic operations are secured and executed without relying on centralized servers or trusted intermediaries.\\\n\\\nTACo empowers the end-user to fully control who accesses their data, who obtains cryptographic signatures, how, and when – all without single points of failure or trust burdens.\n\n{% embed url=\"https://taco.build\" %}\n\n### **I'm interested in..**\n\n\u003ctable data-view=\"cards\" data-full-width=\"false\"\u003e\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003cth\u003e\u003c/th\u003e\u003cth\u003e\u003c/th\u003e\u003cth data-hidden data-card-target data-type=\"content-ref\"\u003e\u003c/th\u003e\u003cth data-hidden data-card-cover data-type=\"files\"\u003e\u003c/th\u003e\u003c/tr\u003e\u003c/thead\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuilding with TACo\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eIntegrate TACo into your app and enable general-purpose data sharing and automation workflows for your end-users and customers.\u003c/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"for-developers/get-started-with-tac.md\"\u003eget-started-with-tac.md\u003c/a\u003e\u003c/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\".gitbook/assets/TACo-Thadde-Comar-2.jpg\"\u003eTACo-Thadde-Comar-2.jpg\u003c/a\u003e\u003c/td\u003e\u003c/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEvaluating TACo's utility\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eUnderstand TACo's unique capabilities \u0026#x26; qualities, including condition logic, Web3 infra compatibility, and transparent trust models.\u003c/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"for-product-leads/value-propositions.md\"\u003evalue-propositions.md\u003c/a\u003e\u003c/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\".gitbook/assets/TACo-diagram-white-6.png\"\u003eTACo-diagram-white-6.png\u003c/a\u003e\u003c/td\u003e\u003c/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRunning a TACo Node\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eSupport the TACo network and earn fees/rewards by setting up your own low-memory, low-expense, low-maintenance node client.\u003c/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"for-node-operators/getting-set-up/\"\u003egetting-set-up\u003c/a\u003e\u003c/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\".gitbook/assets/TACo-Thadde-Comar.jpg\"\u003eTACo-Thadde-Comar.jpg\u003c/a\u003e\u003c/td\u003e\u003c/tr\u003e\u003c/tbody\u003e\u003c/table\u003e\n\n### **Get Started Now**\n\n* [**Quickstart Guide →**](for-developers/get-started-with-tac.md)\\\n  Your first encrypted data sharing / automated signing flow - up and running in minutes.\n* [**Join the Community on Discord →**](http://discord.gg/buildwithtaco)\\\n  Connect with developers, node operators, and the TACo team.\n* [**View TACo on GitHub →**](https://github.com/nucypher/taco-web)\\\n  Explore the codebase, contribute, or file issues.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fnucypher%2Ftaco-docs","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fnucypher%2Ftaco-docs","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fnucypher%2Ftaco-docs/lists"}
