Yoon Auh, "NUTS: The Beta Demo"

Beyond End-to-End Encryption (BE2EE) technology can protect
your data in-transit and at-rest in a consistent way: NUTS may help
define this new category. Last year, we presented the technology of
NUTS (https://ceri.as/nuts2020). This
year, we demonstrate NUTS in action with our Beta version. See
secure objects move around in cyberspace without a central
reference monitor in a transport agnostic way. The demo will show
practical use cases that NUTS enables. The global pandemic
drastically altered our way of life and Work-From-Home presents
technical challenges that reveal the structural weaknesses of our
largest systems. Adversarial threats are now more common place and
large outages are frequent. We believe NUTS shows a new path
towards a more resilient operating environment for our data. We
strongly recommend viewing last year’s presentation
(https://ceri.as/nuts2020)to
better understand the background and approach of the tech.
