Hi Daml’ers! I read an interesting quote from @Yuval “Without Daml, **workflows cannot be shared privately and securely within and across organizations** , leading to inconsistent data, expensive to adapt architectures, and a lack of common interfaces."

I’m particularly interested in examples or blogs pertaining to my question. From what I understand, sub-transaction privacy could be the short answer to my question?

Thanks!  
Chris

Hi @Chris_Rivers 👋

The [privacy section of the docs](https://docs.daml.com/concepts/ledger-model/ledger-privacy.html) explains all the concepts involved in making the workflows secure and private. A great and concise example can be also found in [the IOU quickstart](https://docs.daml.com/daml/intro/7_Composing.html#privacy).

@bernhard also wrote [a great blog post](https://daml.com/blog/engineering/beyond-tokenization) explaining why privacy (and not anonymity) is important within (and beyond) asset tokenization.

Hope this helps!
