World’s biggest companies attend Web Summit every year to show off their newest technology developments. In 2018, Google was talking about data privacy and users’ personal data protection, and Microsoft gave speech about cyber attacks.
Recently a lot of attention has been given to online threats as in our current online ecosystem, internet is providing people with all the required access to living. From financials to basic services, people are dependent on the internet, and so it becomes a huge threat as well because everybody is a target online.
People’s bank accounts getting hacked on a daily basis. Governments are getting hacked as well taking into consideration the recent drone attack in the Middle East on Saudi Aramco. The internet security is needed more than ever before.
We see major players like Google, IBM, Microsoft and Apple. These are the companies which started the tech industry, but since the technology has been developing so rapidly and blockchain has become a new source of transaction power, analysts predict that technology future does not lie in the hands of Google, Microsoft and Apple. As a matter of fact, Oracle and IBM are already struggling with innovations. Their costs are too high so they start acquiring smart startups which build products fast. The future will be built by startups.
In 2019, there is one company which is worth paying attention – Skipjack Corporation from Singapore. This company is a new startup and they are developing a Zetanet which is the new type of internet. One of the main features of Zetanet is personal data protection enabling users to have their own data control. This allows users to choose whether they want to keep their data private or monetize it. Using Zetanet, users can earn money by monetizing their personal data.
Skipjack Corp will present for the first time live demo of the Zetanet at Web Summit in Lisbon. Be sure to check them out. Who knows maybe there will be a new acquisition offer from Google!
