And how it powers ultimate confidentiality of its user data

By Charlotte Kng

If user data is the oil of the 21st century, then privacy would be the refinery that it cannot do without. Violation of user data confidentiality is so rampant these days — cue the Facebook-Analytica data scandal and iCloud hacks — that individuals are slowly losing trust in the databases that they once swear by.

Why blockchain is the Õpet’s best bet.

As with anything else in this fast-moving digital age, traditional storage platforms are quickly finding themselves replaced by their swifter, sleeker sibling — the blockchain. It’s decentralized, encrypted and immutable nature presents a promising opportunity for data-driven applications like Õpet to safeguard the confidentiality of millions of bytes of personal information flowing through its system, ensuring maximum efficiency without compromising on security.

However, there is one issue — traditional permissionless blockchains do not restrict access from anonymous and pseudonymous users. This means that the user information, even if encrypted, can be easily accessed and retrieved from this transparent model. Õpet understands that this technology, whilst advanced, is not nearly adequate enough to manage the delicate nature of personal user information hosted on the platform.

Hence, the HyperLedger.

Just how powerful is the Hyperledger Fabric?

Õpet will be interpreting huge amounts of confidential user data and personal preferences daily through its artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies. As such, two things are cardinal: that identity is always validated and access to controls remains absolutely stringent.

With a HyperLedger, Õpet will be able to:

- Control who joins the network and validate the identity of a new user, ensuring maximum security. This is something a public, permissionless blockchain will not be able to deliver.

- Execute scalable and fast transactions; public blockchains with every single full node required to process transactions often result in unsatisfactory transaction throughput.

- Set access control rules for sensitive user information.

- Ensure high resilience.

- Troubleshoot automatically.

Now that you’ve understood the prowess of Õpet’s HyperLedger, it might be time to come on board the safest place you need to be — Õpet.
