In the PolySwarm marketplace,
decentralising threat detection
allows people from all over the
world to participate. Being
rewarded for submitting correct
assertions also encourages experts
to continue learning and
innovating, allowing us to
continually provide high-value
cyber security.

12. C E R T C O I N
the creators of CertCoin have
found a way to decentralize the
certificate management process,
removing middle-man authorities,
and leveraging the distributed
nature of the blockchain to create
an auditable certification ledger,
available to the public, without a
single point of failure

Keyless Signature Structure (KSI) is the focus
for GuardTime, who first began their work by
helping the Estonian Government create a
verifiable security system.
Now, they work in a variety of industries to
replace key-based data authentication by
storing hashes of original files, data and the
like on blockchain. When running hashing
algorithms, they’re able to verify other copies
of this information and compare results,
allowing for quick discovery of
manipulations.

14. M O B I L E C O I N
MobileCoin’s goal: to create a streamlined,
private digital currency that’s both easy to use
and allows for quick transactions from any
mobile device.
With a focus on privacy and ease-of-use,
MobileCoin is using nodes to manage both the
ledger and transaction validation. These operate
on a fully updated copy of each currency’s
blockchain, and will also handle all key
management for users, ensuring total privacy,
ease-of-use and speed. Finally, the nodes work in
conjunction with the SGX enclaves to bolster
security:

Quantstamp is the first scalable
security audit protocol, used to
uncover vulnerabilities in Ethereum
smart contracts.
In addition to security, Quantstamp is
focused on making their service cost
effective as well, which they believe is
critical to the success of smart
contract use in many industries.
