James Farwell is an attorney in New Orleans specializing in cybersecurity law, with Elkins PLC.
His sessions are packed when he shares his expertise at our SecureWorld regional security conferences.
He and his peers just published an Op-Ed on Blockchain (in plain English) about how it can help secure your organization.
"Blockchain is an emerging technology that can help ensure the integrity of data, save money, and enhance cybersecurity. Blockchains may be public or private. For most companies, private chains are more relevant. Blockchain is technical and complicated. We have simplified it to focus on cybersecurity."
The op-ed lists five specific examples of how using Blockchain can help secure your organization:
- It battles ransomware
- It has built in encryption
- It makes detection easier
- It makes DDoS attacks more difficult for hackers
- It deters bad actors because their actions are tracked
These are just the bullet points.
For the facts behind them, and a simple explanation of Blockchain technology, check out Farwell's op-ed: "How blockchain can strengthen your cybersecurity."
And be sure to look for one of his upcoming SecureWorld sessions:
