iTrue's Blockchain-based Data Storage

While public blockchains have grabbed the early headlines and plaudits for enabling anonymity, you can create private blockchains that restrict access to specific users. You still get the benefits of a decentralized peer-to-peer network, but anyone accessing a private blockchain must authenticate their identity to gain access privileges and it can be restricted to specific transactions.

iTrue is entering this space with its state-of-the-art Stone Storage solution, a unique data storage feature whereby personal information is stored separately from its record of transaction and can be divided into different levels and stages. This allows users to decide which information to share with which party, thus being in complete control of sensitive information.

In addition to blockchain-based data storage, iTrue is taking data security to the next level by securing information using biometric technology. This means users can successfully verify their identity by scanning their face, eye iris, or other facial feature in order to access their stored data. iTrue and its large team of developers is committed to working closely with the community to unlock the next generation of secure data storage solution.
