NCF-341 Exploring New Methods of Distributed Trust

New Cyber Frontier

Hello Everybody, welcome back to the New Cyber Frontier podcast. We continue with the series' fifth episode with Tim Montgomery and Dr. Gorog, Looking over these past years of work in distributed trust. The normalization of today's society is that we trust these large-scale businesses with our data and goods because they are the only safe options we have in most cases. The alternative to reliance on large organizations in the digital world leaves us potentially working with a myriad of unknown, untested, unverifiable connections on the other side of the world. The safer bet is to go to the megasite provider that we know will at least be in business to resolve issues if they occur. Changing this game requires the tools for distributing trust, which may give us a granular ability to trust small providers or individuals. Dr. Gorog explains the work in distributed ledger as a tool for distributed trust and its use in the connection of different elements of Cybersecurity. Take advantage of this impactful episode, which contains some of the best explanations of zero-trust and Cybersecurity by Design.
