Founder & Principal Architect, CHASEME
Francesco Tripepi is a technology executive and hands-on architect with deep expertise in cybersecurity platforms, AI infrastructure, and large-scale distributed systems. As the founder and principal architect of CHASEME, he leads the technical vision for a creator platform built on encryption-first principles.
With a background spanning enterprise security, cloud-native infrastructure, and DevOps at scale, Francesco brings a discipline rooted in correctness, isolation, and least-privilege design to every layer of the platform — from per-content encryption and HSM-backed key management to real-time content delivery and fraud detection systems.
Before founding CHASEME, Francesco architected and led security infrastructure for organizations operating across regulated industries, building systems that demanded FIPS 140-2 compliance, zero-trust networking, and continuous audit readiness.
CHASEME exists because creator platforms have historically treated security as an afterthought. Content protection was limited to access control — if someone had a valid session, they had unrestricted access to raw media files. That architectural choice has cost creators billions in leaked content and lost revenue.
The philosophy behind CHASEME is straightforward: treat every piece of creator content as a high-value asset that deserves the same protection as financial data. Per-content encryption with hardware-backed key management, forensic watermarking for traceability, and instant cryptographic revocation on subscription changes.
This is not security theater. It is the same infrastructure pattern used by banks, defense contractors, and healthcare systems — applied to the creator economy because creators deserve the same standard of protection.
Every piece of content is encrypted with its own unique key using AES-256-GCM. Access revocation is cryptographic, not session-based.
All encryption keys are managed through FIPS 140-2 certified Hardware Security Modules. Keys never exist in plaintext outside the HSM boundary.
Invisible per-subscriber watermarks enable leak tracing back to the specific account that distributed the content.
No implicit trust between services. Every request is authenticated and authorized. Least-privilege access controls at every boundary.
