Emerald circuit is a rapidly developing sidechain ecosystem for the integration of IoT devices and intelligent objects. Built on the Ambrosus Blockchain, Emerald Circuit offers full-circuit device security from sensor to cloud to blockchain by providing its own sidechain network for anti-counterfeiting and security purposes. Put simply, Emerald Circuit offers the hardware and software necessary to solve the garbage-in, garbage-out problem of blockchain data security. In context, Emerald Circuit’s secure network of smart sensors provides a secure IoT-blockchain interface that will usher in novel business opportunities in the industry 4.0 economy.
The potential benefits of integrating IoT/blockchain networks are especially evident in the management of high value products, the future of international logistics, as well as in supply and delivery chains: In all of such processes visibility into the state of physical entities and trust among network participants are typically lacking. Integrated networks can provide customers with guaranteed metrics on packaging dates, conditions of the shipping environment, and length of time spent in inventory. With consumers increasingly focused on product quality over price , businesses stand to benefit from the integrated network’s individualized certification.
The only thing more important than traceability to an industry 4.0 company will be anti-counterfeiting and product security: A recent study by the Palo Alto Institute found that over 98% of IoT traffic is unencrypted, and therefore categorized as ‘vulnerable’ to cyber security attacks. Emerald Circuit alleviates this concern with patented and networked IoT devices - ranging from intelligent containers and boxes to smart flasks. Designed to be integrated with the products themselves, the set of Emerald Circuit solutions are capable of monitoring a diverse parameter of environmental conditions while also providing inbuilt anti-counterfeiting features. They all fit together in a secure and encrypted fashion, forming a network of connected sensors that give business owners a total view of the surroundings of their products. Overall, such products are used to secure individual assets, or for entire batches of assets that require real-time monitoring, status verification and anti-counterfeiting protection.
