Research abstract
Leading-edge technologies are becoming increasingly connected. Everything from software to Internet-of-Things devices rely on a high degree of connectivity to enable powerful functionalities. However, this expansion in connectivity is accompanied by an exponentially growing challenge to protect data and maintain secure connections. Cyber-attacks are one of the most significant threats to national security, and every integration that the Department of Air Force (DAF) and its vendors employ opens up another data vulnerability. The DAF needs a method through which it can protect both physical and digital access throughout its network without creating overwhelming cybersecurity obstacles that impair connectivity and the ability to develop new software. GetChkd is a full-suite enterprise blockchain infrastructure platform that solves this issue by enabling Web3, connecting the online and real-world – on-chain and off-chain. By hosting data on a private network that can only be accessed via GetChkd’s REST API, the service makes it possible to secure and share verified data, assets, identity, and preferences across all platforms—hardware, software, devices, and apps—all while maintaining users’ privacy and confidentiality. GetChkd’s patented distributed ledger technology keeps data safe using protected data derivatives, which only share proof of information without exposing the underlying sensitive or personal information.
