The data leak incident in Washington underlined security problems in digital communications. Technologies like HGTP from Constellation Network offer new solutions.
Issues with HTTPS: Vulnerabilities and Consequences
HTTPS has long been considered the standard for securing internet communications; however, its reliance on centralized Certificate Authorities (CAs) leaves it vulnerable. If a CA is compromised, attackers can impersonate trusted entities, undermining data security.
A New Era of Security: HGTP from Constellation Network
HGTP (Hypergraph Transfer Protocol) from Constellation Network utilizes Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) technology, allowing multiple transactions to be processed simultaneously. This increases the speed and security of data, decentralizing trust and avoiding vulnerabilities associated with centralization.
Decentralized Trust and Its Importance for the Future
Constellation Network has been actively collaborating with the U.S. Department of Defense since 2019, demonstrating real applications of HGTP for secure data transmission. This approach to security could change how government and corporate institutions interact.
Incidents like the one in Washington highlight the need for more reliable security systems. Technologies like HGTP could form the basis for the development of secure digital communications.
