🌋 U.S. Navy Seeks Partners to Trial Its Blockchain Technology
posted 3 Jun 2024
The U.S. Navy is actively seeking a corporate partner to test its proprietary PARANOID blockchain. This innovative system is designed to significantly improve cybersecurity measures for military software throughout its lifecycle—from development to deployment.
The initiative was originally developed by the Naval Air Warfare Center’s Aircraft Division (NAWCAD). Following its inception, the project received endorsement from higher military echelons to extend its application to other programs where cybersecurity is paramount.
PARANOID functions through continuous verification of files across all network nodes, ensuring that all developer activities are tracked and logged within the blockchain. This approach helps prevent unauthorized alterations, deletions, or breaches in software files.
A key selection criterion for potential partners is their commitment to thoroughly test the blockchain and provide detailed feedback. The U.S. Navy and Air Force have previously engaged with SIMBA Chain, whose platform is used by Notre Dame Cathedral to secure its supply chains.
