Alex ‘Sandy’ Pentland on Enigma using the Bitcoin blockchain to compute with secure data

With a name like Enigma readers would be right to suspect that MIT was working on something used by a super villain, of course the premise of the project is to make everyday people smarter and safer. Alex “Sandy” Pentland, the Toshiba Professor at MIT, advises the Enigma project which uses the Bitcoin blockchain to securely track encrypted data so that it can be processed without revealing the underlying raw information.
