Hacken’s Performance at The Blockchain Revolution

Our CEO was the first spokesman on the forum. In his speech, he not only introduced Hacken to the Asian business elite but also gave some essential pieces of advice on how not to be hacked. At the beginning, Dmytro mentioned episodes from the famous Black Mirror show, which described surprising ways hackers can disturb the public peace. He claimed that cyber criminals have superpowers right here and right now, and that it’s not the nearest future but a reality that they can use it to the detriment of society. Dmytro even suggested to write down the website Have I Been Pwned? and check later whether your account has been compromised or not. To exemplify his point above, Dmytro offered up some recent figures provided by Cybersecurity Ventures, they estimated that cybercrime damages will cost the world $6 trillion annually by 2021. In such a way, Dmytro stressed the gravity of cyber crimes. Being perplexed, the audience was prodded to hear more about how Hacken can help them save money, customers, and reputation.

It was obligatory to describe the Hacken ecosystem like Dmytro did in detail. Each of the seven services was closely presented. Special attention was given to the anti-phishing service, mentioning the famous case of rescuing Jibrel Network’s ICO, and smart contracts audit giving credits to Oleksiy Matiyasevich, Hacken’s advisor, who saved $1.5 millions of Parity. Moreover, the audience was impressed by such innovative services as cyber insurance and Hacken marketplace. According to Dmytro, the later is ‘where blockchain technology drives the whole market… as a new channel for vendors is created’.

Towards the end, Dmytro Budorin introduced the Hacken executive team and the project’s outstanding advisors. He revealed the business plan, and finished his speech on an up note, “The best ways to protect your business is to have hackers on your side”.
