This project will develop Metrarc's Trusted Ring cybersecurity technology implementation for the DSbD Mortello platform, to both evaluate the full stack design process as part of the project and investigate the suitability of this platform to further enhance the degree of security provided by the Trusted Ring technology. The Trusted Ring approach facilita...

The proposal will develop novel authentication and authorisation mechanisms for networked financial data using distributed ledger (blockchain) technology. Recent progress in blockchains suggests that one of the interesting potential applications of the technology is in “disintermediation protocols”, which remove the need of having trusted third parties in...

The ASSURED project aims to radically tranform the secure access to health data in the UK and as a result accelerate innovation within the healthcare digital supply chain. ASSURED will speed up the process by which new digital services are adopted within healthcare and will simultaneously reduce security risks associated with the management of personal he...

Cloud based computing is now the fastest growing sector within the IT sector. As more data about people and companies is held in the cloud security issues are becoming a great concern. Currently encryption technology is used to secure data but this has a major vunerability as the encryption keys are stored and can therefore be lost or stolen thus comprimi...

Metrarc is a University spin out based in Cambridge with research and development labs at the Universities of Essex and Kent, developing novel and ground-breaking technology called ICMetrics™ for deriving secure encryption keys from the properties of digital systems without the need to store any of the encryption keys, digital signatures or ICMetric data....

Mobile and handheld devices are become increasingly popular and are now adopted widely. There has been a widespread shift from personal computers to such mobile devices and a very significant proportion of the internet traffic is now generated on these devices, which are employed widely for commercial transactions and payments. While considerable effort h...

The fundamental challenge in allowing m_commerce systems to develop and become established is one of ensuring trust and security within the m_commerce transaction process. The technical challenges associated with communication have been addressed but significant problems remain in establishing the identity both of a smartphone engaged in an m_commerce tra...

Currently, issues associated with determining the provenance of online cloud based services act as a significant barrier to their continuing expansion. Essentially, despite the considerable benefits of their expansion for both social interaction and further economic development, there is a general lack of trust associated with the services. The primary pu...

The need to protect the integrity of nodes within a distributed network has long been recognised, but the increasingly widespread adoption of such networks raises new challenges, particularly where these devices are communicating autonomously. ICmetrics represents a ground-breaking new approach for generating unique identifiers for embedded devices enabli...
