^ZUG, Switzerland, Nov. 02, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Today Aleph announces Zero

announced that the wholly owned subsidiary of Deutsche

Set up a validation node in the test network and provide your infrastructure

available to contribute to collective security, administration and decentralization

from Aleph Zero.

In a landscape where the Web3 infrastructure is evolving rapidly

developed further, Aleph Zero stands out alongside Ethereum, Polygon, Polkadot,

Chainlink, Energy Web, Q, Celo and Flow stand out as one of the few that do this

We were able to gain trust from the well-known brand. This participation underlines

the credibility of Aleph Zero, its approach to privacy

on-chain and its potential to scale to an enterprise level.

With Aleph Zero, Deutsche Telekom MMS is further expanding its infrastructure portfolio

by providing a privacy-friendly, highly scalable and secure

Layer 1 network supported, making Deutsche Telekom the first with one

data protection-friendly network.

?Past incidents such as hacks and security leaks have shown how important

Security, data protection and decentralization in Web3 are. In this

In this context, our collaboration with Aleph Zero is very exciting. With new ones

We work with technical standards and a high degree of decentralization

Aleph Zero’s Layer 1 blockchain is based on an original

Consensus protocol, AlephBFT, ink! smart contracts, created by the team behind Polkadot

and WASM was developed. Even though it is a public network,

Aleph Zero also offers robust data protection technology based on a

Combination of zero-knowledge evidence (ZK-SNARKs) and safer

Multi-party computation (sMPC) based.

With ZK-SNARKs, an actor, the so-called prover, can provide a concise proof

for a calculation without revealing the actual data. This

means that the verifier confirms the correctness of the prover’s actions

can without accessing the information that is confidential to the prover

want to keep. On the other hand, sMPC protects the information by protecting it

stores off-chain across multiple nodes. The data will be

cryptographically divided so that no individual network participant has anything to say

can find out the content of the data. The nodes can then use this data

Perform calculations while the contents of the data remain secret

This solution is specifically designed for tasks that involve private

Data from multiple users is possible and is suitable for different use cases

private voting or private exchange. A disadvantage of sMPC is

however, its slow speed when it comes to longer calculations. Around

To balance their strengths and weaknesses, Aleph Zero uses ZK-SNARKs for

basic processes and verification of individual data, and sMPC for one

very small amount of highly specific calculations. This approach ensures

both speed and safety in everyday use.
