Constellation signs contract with US Air Force for blockchain solution
Constellation Network Inc., a technology and blockchain company has signed a working contract with the U.S. Air Force to deliver a blockchain solution for handling Big Data. The technology will help manage traditionally non-accessible data and data sources known as Multi-Domain Command and Control, according to a press release.
Currently, much of this data is either non accessible or requires a lot of time and effort to collect, analyze and plan around the data. Constellation will help provide tools to drive better interoperability between legacy and future data types while offering decentralized security and encryption with blockchain technology, according to the release.
While people aren't buying blockchain off of shelves, government organizations have the opportunity to drive innovation." Benjamin Jorgensen, CEO at Constellation, said in the release. "The move by the United States government to work with early-stage businesses and early innovation shows a massive shift by the public sector to be leaders in revolutionizing existing infrastructures by adopting new technologies that protect consumers' privacy, while tackling futuristic visions of the connected world and joining the private sector in the $50B industry of big data."
