As the world moves towards a technological epoch, data processing, managing and security is becoming relatively important. Confidential data of businesses and individuals are being gathered by specialized systems (eg. Transaction Processing System, Health Information system, Customer Relationship Management System, etc.) throughout their daily interaction and communication with these systems. This has led to the rise of cyber-crimes in recent times. These cyber threats may take different forms (e.g., application attacks, malware, ransom ware, phishing, exploit kits).
Unfortunately, cyber criminals have cost-effective and easily accessible resources to assist them in carrying out sophisticated attacks. This deviant behavior has led to the collapse of institutions, loss of wealth and lives, etc. Cyber threats are mostly targeted at secret, political, military or infrastructural assets of a nation or its people. Deductively, it’s clear the cybersecurity industry has flaws and these flaws to be dealt with. UNCLOAK, a blockchain based technology seeks to develop a comprehensive ecosystem to help fill the gaps in the cyber security market.
Uncloak is a distinctive and fully scalable blockchain based technology that enables businesses and individuals to monitor, protect themselves against and eliminate cyber threats, staying one step ahead of the cyber adversaries. It incorporates several mechanisms to achieve a maximum cybersecurity needs of its users. Some of the mechanisms are elaborated below:
• Block chain powered bug bounty campaign to help fight cybersecurity issues. The introduction of the Uncloak token (UNC) with the aid of smart contract will be used to develop a voting right system that allows the community of Uncloak accredited IT security specialists, software developers etc. to performs system and network analyses for vulnerabilities. Provisions will be made for verifying vulnerabilities identified by hunters and rewarded with UNC tokens accordingly.
• An alliance formed with Krzana™ to build an advanced Artificial Intelligent (AI) that will scan the public internet and dark web for potential threats and vulnerabilities. Serving as Intel for further investigation and research to help maintain an up-to-date solution to security-related problems.
• Improved tools that will allow users to scan their internal network and cloud environment for threats and vulnerabilities and report back to the central dashboard.
Uncloak project being a problem-solving oriented, comes with great benefits to all kinds of users. In the following paragraph, we will look at some of the benefits one can derive from the adoption and effective use Uncloak services.
For individuals, Uncloak is focused on developing usable products that will lead to achieving a usability goal (ie. developing a product that is safe to use). Client’s private data will be protected from unauthorized access, hacks and breaches effortlessly, making them feel confident and well protected whiles connected to the internet.
Most companies are highly prone to cyber-attacks due to them having data that are of interest to hackers. These data ranges from highly sensitive government data to customer private data like credit card and bank details, social security numbers (SSN) etc. Improper management of such data comes with great consequences. The uncloak platform has been designed to adopt all business processes that involve data transmission. Partners enjoy a whole lot of benefits including;
securely sharing of data with the external environment (suppliers, customers, etc.), real-time analytics and automated reporting with a locked audit trail of everything, acquisition of tamper-proof databases for maximum data security, the opportunity to request for hunters(certified by Uncloak Team) to perform pen testing on their systems and several others.
Uncloak platform seeks to provide bug hunters on their platform the credibility and exposure through an effective KYC process. Besides, hunters are also rewarded with UNC token for pursuing activities on the platform such as identifying vulnerabilities. This is an opportunity for skilled persons to earn extra cash online by doing what they like to do for fun.
In the long run, data security is a very important issue that needs to be addressed for once. Even though we have existing technologies with similar motives, there is the need for a permanent solution to cyber threats. Uncloak a block chain 3.0 powered project comes with numerous benefits including decentralization, cost effectiveness, transparency and much more, making it interesting and worth implementing.
Uncloak has a great team members who have worked on similar projects and already have products that are being utilized by small to large institutions.
