Uncloak brings together both pioneering technology such as advanced AI and blockchain 3.0, as well as the human expertise of a network of ethical hackers to create next-generation cyber security threat management.
Ex-hacker turned security expert, Tayo Data has launched a blockchain powered cyber security solution. Much like a weather forecast, the firm promise to identify future hacks and allow organisations to be prepared for threats before they arrive.
Uncloak brings together both pioneering technology such as advanced AI and blockchain 3.0, as well as the human expertise of a network of ethical hackers to create next-generation cyber security threat management.
With Uncloak, blockchain provides a decentralised marketplace to create a platform where both ethical ‘white hat’ and ‘black hat’ hackers can be paid in a legitimate way for finding and sharing the newest threats and vulnerabilities.
The blockchain solution will work on a low-cost subscription model. Subscribers will have access to a personalised dashboard which searches everything from printer passwords to vulnerable software within the company’s network to measure their cyber security.

When a threat is identified, the subscriber is notified and given steps to resolve the issue. If they aren’t able to activate the solution themselves, Uncloak will connect the user with a verified local IT security expert who will be able to resolve the problem at a pre-defined and agreed cost.
Companies will be able to subscribe to this platform using traditional currencies, however, Uncloak has its own UNC Token which can be used to pay for a subscription.
Given that this platform offers a marketplace for hackers to be economically awarded for ethical behaviour, Uncloak looks to be addressing one of the biggest issues for CTOs relating to cyber security: the skills gap.
A recent report from Frost & Sullivan and (ISC)2 found that the global cyber security workforce will have more than 1.5 million unfilled positions by 2020. This number is compounded by 45% of hiring managers reporting that they are struggling to support additional hiring needs and 62% of respondents reporting that their organisations have too few information security professionals.

How a cyber attack hampered Hong Kong protesters

Massive public protests taking place in Hong Kong over the past week are aimed at a new extradition law, known as the Fugitive Offenders Ordinance , that would see accused criminals extradited to mainland China to face prosecution. Hongkongers feel the law could be used to legalise the kidnapping of people who express views, and act in ways, that are not popular with the Chinese government . The same law could also be used to extradite tourists and visitors to China who are arrested on suspicion of having committed these crimes. Protesters want the bill scrapped. For now, debate of the legislation has been postponed . Organisers say one million people turned out for the protests, while police estimate the number was around 240,000. Either way, it was a significant number of Hong Kong’s 7.5 million population. Commentators on Twitter remarked on how well organised the protesters were. So, how did they do it? Protesters across the world are using n

Islam Has Massacred Over 669+ Million Non-Muslims Since 622AD

In fact, no ideology has been as genocidal as Islam… Islam has killed more than 5 times the number of people killed by communism. In the total numbers we have updated over 80 million Christians killed by Muslims in 500 years in the Balkan states, Hungary, Ukraine, Russia. Then we have India. The official estimate number of Muslim slaughters of Hindus is 80 million. However, Muslim historian Firistha (b. 1570) wrote (in either Tarikh-i Firishta or  the Gulshan-i Ibrahim) that Muslims slaughtered over 400 million Hindus up to the peak of Islamic rule of India, bringing the Hindu population down from 600 mil to 200 million at the time. With these new additions the Muslim genocide of non-Muslims since the birth of Mohammed would be  over 669 million murders. Islam: The Religion of Genocide Perspective:   Think the Spanish inquisition was bad? More people are killed by Islamists each year than in all 350 years of the Spanish Inquisition* combined. The Spanish inquisition ( Tribunal del Sant
