STATE OF THE PLATFORM REVOLUTION 2021 - by Sangeet Paul ChoudarySangeet Paul Choudary
This 90-page report lays out the key themes in the platform economy for the year 2020-21. Themes span platform regulation, inequality in the gig economy, platform strategy for incumbents, bigtech movements into new industries etc.
“Software is eating the world” said Netscape founder Marc Andreessen in his Wall Street Journal 2011 op-ed to describe how digital technology has transformed the world of business. We divide the disruption into two stages; efficient pipelines disrupting inefficient pipelines and platforms disrupting pipelines. Most Internet applications during the 1990s involved the creation of highly efficient pipelines—online systems for distributing goods and services that out-competed incumbent industries. Online pipelines tended to have very low marginal costs of distribution—sometimes as low as zero. This allowed them to target and serve large markets with much smaller investment. We are now in stage two where platforms disrupt pipelines. They bring news sources of supply to market, change value consumption by facilitating new forms of consumer behavior, change quality control through crowd sourced curation, and bring new market middlemen by aggregating fragmented markets.

Companies that can transform their traditional business models into network models will have a competitive advantage based on new insights into pricing, network effects, supply chains, and strategy. These principles show how dotcom companies like Airbnb, Amazon, Apple and Uber managed, in a relatively short time, to attract millions of clients worldwide. But they apply also to traditional product companies like Sony, shoe companies like Nike, and spice companies like McCormick. New business models help these companies extend existing transactions to new, associated products and services. Platforms beat products every time.

The Platform Manifesto - 16 principles for digital transformationSangeet Paul Choudary
The Platform Manifesto is a collection of principles that succinctly defines how different aspects of business transform in a world of digital platforms.
This lecture describes the Platform model or Two-sided Markets. Platforms serve multiple customer groups and benefit from network effects that take place with and between those groups. Businesses based on Platforms are able to adopt innovative pricing structures in which one side subsidizes another. When the marginal costs are near zero it can be practical to drop the subsidized price all the way to zero.

# Internet Security: Safeguarding Your Digital World
In the contemporary digital age, the internet is a cornerstone of our daily lives. It connects us to vast amounts of information, provides platforms for communication, enables commerce, and offers endless entertainment. However, with these conveniences come significant security challenges. Internet security is essential to protect our digital identities, sensitive data, and overall online experience. This comprehensive guide explores the multifaceted world of internet security, providing insights into its importance, common threats, and effective strategies to safeguard your digital world.
## Understanding Internet Security
Internet security encompasses the measures and protocols used to protect information, devices, and networks from unauthorized access, attacks, and damage. It involves a wide range of practices designed to safeguard data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Effective internet security is crucial for individuals, businesses, and governments alike, as cyber threats continue to evolve in complexity and scale.
### Key Components of Internet Security
1. **Confidentiality**: Ensuring that information is accessible only to those authorized to access it.
2. **Integrity**: Protecting information from being altered or tampered with by unauthorized parties.
3. **Availability**: Ensuring that authorized users have reliable access to information and resources when needed.
## Common Internet Security Threats
Cyber threats are numerous and constantly evolving. Understanding these threats is the first step in protecting against them. Some of the most common internet security threats include:
### Malware
Malware, or malicious software, is designed to harm, exploit, or otherwise compromise a device, network, or service. Common types of malware include:
- **Viruses**: Programs that attach themselves to legitimate software and replicate, spreading to other programs and files.
- **Worms**: Standalone malware that replicates itself to spread to other computers.
- **Trojan Horses**: Malicious software disguised as legitimate software.
- **Ransomware**: Malware that encrypts a user's files and demands a ransom for the decryption key.
- **Spyware**: Software that secretly monitors and collects user information.
### Phishing
Phishing is a social engineering attack that aims to steal sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details. Attackers often masquerade as trusted entities in email or other communication channels, tricking victims into providing their information.
### Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) Attacks
MitM attacks occur when an attacker intercepts and potentially alters communication between two parties without their knowledge. This can lead to the unauthorized acquisition of sensitive information.
### Denial-of-Service (DoS) and Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) Attacks

Wireless communication involves the transmission of information over a distance without the help of wires, cables or any other forms of electrical conductors.
Wireless communication is a broad term that incorporates all procedures and forms of connecting and communicating between two or more devices using a wireless signal through wireless communication technologies and devices.
Features of Wireless Communication
The evolution of wireless technology has brought many advancements with its effective features.
The transmitted distance can be anywhere between a few meters (for example, a television's remote control) and thousands of kilometers (for example, radio communication).
Wireless communication can be used for cellular telephony, wireless access to the internet, wireless home networking, and so on.

● Introduction
● Key Success Factors
● What is a Two Sided Platform
● Multisided Platform Business
● Steps To Launch A Digital Platform
3. Introduction
● A digital platform business typically connects producers and consumers of products and
services. The platform enables the users to add value on the platform and engage in beneficial
transactions. The key feature of any platform business is its ease of use.
● This enables more and more users to use the platform. The three main technologies that are
driving the development of platforms is social, mobile and cloud. The fourth major technology
that is being seen as important for platforms of the future is the Internet of Things.
4. Key Success Factors
1. Ease of registering and becoming a user
2. The benefits(or the attractiveness) of using the platform
3. Smooth flow of interaction amongst the users.
Every platform must provide benefits to producers and consumers of products and services to use it for their
advantage:
Amazon provides a host of products at the right price point - which attracts buyers. On the other hand, it gives the
opportunity to sellers to sell on its platform.
The ease with which the users can find products is another factor for the success of the platform. For the seller, the
incentive system and the reputation of the platform are really important as well.
5. What is a Two Sided Platform?
● A two sided platform strategy means that there are 2 sides of a market and both the sides
benefit when the other side increases participation. For example, on a single product
eCommerce platform, if the number of buyers increase the number of sellers also increase
because there is more demand.
● Similarly, if the number of sellers increase the number of buyers will also increase because of
increased variety and lower price of goods and services. This sort strategy ensures that the
platform grows exponentially, if the incentives and ease of usage for both the parties is high.
6. Multi-Sided Platform Business
● A multi-sided platform business model is different from two-sided because here the users do not
create direct value in terms of cash. For example in case of Facebook, although more users are
benefitting the platform, these users are not paying for the service. Facebook is still deriving
revenue from more users, but through advertisers.
● So, the more the number of users, the more number of advertisers would want to advertise and
more the revenue. Other examples of Multi-sided platform model include Google and Facebook.
7. Steps To Launch A Digital Platform
Choose a Niche
One could start with say, a community of technology enthusiasts in a particular geographical region, like a
city. Once the business starts to attract loyal users, one can move into other niches and expand the
services.
Creating Groups In The Niche
Identifying the target audience in the niche is the next key step. Once the target audience is defined, their
needs should be understood and they should be provided requisite benefits for being a part of the
community.
A Unique Selling Point
The third and most important aspect of building a platform is to create a USP for the platform. How are
benefits better than those of other platforms. Suppose, you are launching an eCommerce platform for
end consumers and buyers, then a positioning like ‘The best value for money’ Or the ‘ the latest
gadgets’ could help attract more users on the platform.
Cost Management
Hiring remote teams from an expert player like ValueCoders is an essential for developing and launching a
digital platform business. ValueCoders provides Agile teams that provide adaptable and faster delivery
of Agile software projects.
