The Future Hub of Blockchain — Dubai?

Dubai

From its origins as a small fishing creek populated by nomadic Bedouin tribes for much of its history, Dubai gradually emerged into a regional trading and export hub in the early 20th Century. However, it wasn’t until the discovery of oil in the 1960s that the impetus for the Dubai we know today germinated.

Today, the Dubai economy is quite diverse and primarily tourism-based. Known for its combination of visionary leadership, highly advanced infrastructure, a large number of expats (over 80% of Dubai’s population is foreign-born), and a superbly connected flight hub anchored by one of the world’s greatest airlines, Dubai is naturally poised to embrace the latest technological innovations.

For anyone who has been paying attention to this fascinating metropolis, it came as no surprise to learn of news that the Crown Prince Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed Al Maktoum announced an ambitious agenda to have all government documentation (i.e. visa applications) transacted digitally on the blockchain by 2020. This news was followed by the Dubai Land Department becoming the first government agency in the world to publicly adopt blockchain technology, promising to have 100% of land registry records migrated to the blockchain.

CloudFish developed a multi-tier encryption based security model that leverages block chain to secure encryption keys.

Unlike the traditional encryption-based security products, CloudFish splits the encryption key into fragments and stores it on blockchain instead of storing it on a single server. This makes it virtually impossible for a hacker to steal the private encryption keys even if they attempt to creep into a cloud server.

CloudFish uses a proprietary algorithm to dynamically split and reconstruct encryption keys that are stored on the blockchain.

Right now we are working with private investors only and will announce our pre-sales through a press release soon. Please join our Telegram group https://t.me/cloudsecurityico to get the latest information and announcements about CloudFish ICO

CloudFish Enterprise Security Server is managed through a management console that we are building as part of the enterprise version of the product. The console provides features to manage security at the organization, user and device level. Company's designated users with admin privileges can remotely turn on or off the security key access for a particular user or device if a suspicious activity is detected or for some business cases like an employee leaves the company and his access to company's documents need to be revoked.

The admin panel also comes with dashboard that give a 360 view of the security of different device belonging to the organization and provides features like auto-provisioning users, defining security policies, view audit trails and define notifications when a security threat is detected  on a particular node in the network.

Our product strategy team has thoroughly done a competitive market analysis and we worked with our partners and industry leaders while defining the product strategy. We wanted to make sure we develop a product that addresses the needs of the cloud security industry while making sure the product is user-friendly and easy to use.

Hope this answers your question. If you have any other questions, please feel free to send us an email at info@cloud-fish.com and our product management team will be happy to provide you more specific technical details about the CloudFish Security Server.

Thanks

CloudFish allow users to store their data on any cloud platform of their choice: Dropbox, AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Drive or any standard cloud services platform.

CloudFish actually provides an encryption layer on the data that is going to the cloud and implements a security mechanism that stores users security keys on blockchain after splitting it onto fragments.

CloudFish's Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) uses a proprietary algorithm to store and manage users’ encryption keys using block chain technology. Unlike the traditional CASB products available in the market that stores users’ private encryption keys on a single server, the CloudFish CASB splits the users’ keys into fragments and stores it in blockchain. This makes it virtually impossible for a hacker to steal users’ private keys and the digital assets protected through those keys. CloudFish uses a proprietary algorithm to dynamically construct and store users’ keys in the blockchain. The reconstruction and validation mechanism implemented by CloudFish for users’ encryption keys is very similar to the way blockchain validates your cryptocurrency transactions.  The use of blockchain for security keys validation makes it not only impossible for a hacker to steal but also makes it easy for the actual user of the data to access it anytime from any platform.

The follow picture illustrates how CloudFish's CASB server provides a security mechanism for users' cloud data using blockchain to store encryption keys:

Hey Pager, we don't have a separate bounty thread. The link to our bounty site is on the first post cloud-fish.io/bounty.html

Let us know if you habe specific questions.

Cheers!

Thanks for your compliments.

Regarding your question, Storj and CloudFish, although the two companies share some common strengths, their products are completely different and targeting different market segments. Storj's product is in the cloud storage while CloudFish's product is in the cloud security space.

CloudFish Enterprise Security Suite consists of three main functional components: The Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) and the Cloud Data Encryption Interface (CDEI).

Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB)

The CloudFish CASB uses a proprietary algorithm to store and manage users’ encryption keys using block chain technology. Unlike the traditional CASB products available in the market that stores users’ private encryption keys on a single server, the CloudFish CASB splits the users’ keys into fragments and stores it in blockchain. This makes it virtually impossible for a hacker to steal users’ private keys and the digital assets protected through those keys. CloudFish uses a proprietary algorithm to dynamically construct and store users’ keys in the blockchain. The reconstruction and validation mechanism implemented by CloudFish for users’ encryption keys is very similar to the way blockchain validates your cryptocurrency transactions.  The use of blockchain for security keys validation makes it not only impossible to steal but also makes it easy for the user to access it anytime from any platform……means you don’t have to worry what happens to my crypto wallet if my laptop is stolen or lost or if the wallet company’s server gets hacked.



Cloud Data Encryption Interface

The Cloud data encryption interface provides a transparent security layer on top of commercially available cloud services. This layer automatically encrypts any data going to the public cloud and decrypts it when the data is received on the local machine. This encryption layer uses the industry-standard AES 256-bit encryption and it is built on top of the public interfaces provided by commercial cloud services provider.

In release 1.0, CloudFish product has been integrated with Dropbox, Google Drive, Box and Microsoft OneDrive. In release 2.0, additional integrations are planned including Amazon Web Service (AWS) Salesforce.com, Slack and IBM Cloud.

CLOUDFISH CLOUD SERVICES GATEWAY (CSG)

CloudFish Cloud Services Gateway (CSG) is a separate licensable product which integrates with CloudFish Enterprise Security Server.

The CSG provides enterprise data services related to security including automatic detection and control of security threats for the data, the companies store on commercial cloud servers.

The CSG is an agent-based software. Each node in the enterprise network (laptop, desktop, server etc.) runs a CloudFish agent software that monitors the network use pattern on that machine. It uses the artificial intelligence technology and  machine learning algorithms to detect unusual activities like suspicious login attempts, hacking or intrusion attempts, ransomware or a potential spyware or malware activity on each.
 
Upon detection of a suspicious activity on a node, the CloudFish agent running on that node immediately takes preventive actions on that node and it triggers an ‘alarm’ about the security risks that propagates to other nodes in the network .

Upon receiving this information, the agent software running on other nodes takes preventive actions to isolate themselves from the network threat. This sharing and learning about network threats among different network nodes acts like a ‘collective network wisdom’ which minimizes the risk of large-scale data loss and services interruption for the enterprise.

Yes. We have an enterprise product in the final stages of development.

Our plan is to roll out the product in phases. The first release of the product scheduled for Q3 of 2018 will be rolled out to the North American market (USA and Canada). The subsequent releases scheduled for 2019 will be rolled out to additional markets including EMEA ( Europe, Middle East & Africa) and Asia Pacific.

We plan to implement a multi-factor authentication to reconstruct keys, if the user forgets the password.

That's true. Cloud security is one of the fastest growing areas in the enterprise software industry. We have published in our white paper, some abstract of quotes from some renowned industry research firms like Gartner and IDC.

We have also listed some of our key competitors in the cloud security area. Our competitors are doing fantastic financially because the cloud security area itself is too hot. However, the blockchain-based cloud security technology that CloudFish developed clearly distinguishes us from our competitors.

With the new and innovative technology that CloudFish uses which is validated by industry and academy experts, puts our product in a unique quadrant.

Our investors should also appreciate the thorough market research we have done, the rigorous competitive analysis and the clear comparison of our technology with the rest of the players in cloud security that we have published in our white paper.

True. Not only for businesses but we also plan to release a consumer version of our product in the first quarter of 2019. The consumer version will have limited features compared to the enterprise version, but it will offer a secured and less-expensive solution to the individual users who want to secure their digital assets in the cloud.

That's true. Our unique technology to dynamically split and re-construct encryption keys using blockchain, provides a solid security mechanism for enterprises to secure the digital assets.

The core technology we developed, our team with years of experience in large Fortune 500 technology firms and our affiliation with Georgia Tech's ATDC program put us in a very strong position to build a solid cloud security product that addresses the industry needs.

We already answered this question in the thread but will be happy to reply to your specific question.

CloudFish developed an innovative approach to provide cloud security using the block chain technology. Unlike the cloud security solutions currently available in the market, CloudFish invented a blockchain based approach that splits the encryption key into fragments and store it on blockchain. This makes it virtually impossible for a hacker to steal the encryption key and unlock an encrypted document. The algorithm that dynamically splits and re-constructs the encryption key from blockchain is CloudFish's own intellectual property. However, for the actual encryption of the digital assets, we use the industry standard AES 256-bit encryption libraries.
