Leveraging Blockchain for Identity and Authentication in IoT Security

Explore the potential of blockchain technology for enhancing identity and authentication in the Internet of Things (IoT) landscape in this 37-minute conference talk from AppSecUSA 2017. Delve into how mutual distributed ledgers (MDLs) can provide a secure, immutable, and decentralized solution to longstanding privacy and security challenges. Learn about the innovative approach of hashing personal information and storing it on the blockchain, enabling authentication without compromising sensitive data. Discover the concept of dual MDLs for encrypted documents and encryption key access, and how this system could revolutionize identity verification across various sectors. Gain insights into the future of authentication and the potential for increased interoperability among distributed services through blockchain implementation.
