Company Detail:

Naoris Protocol is the Decentralized CyberSecurity Mesh that protects devices across the digital world from cyber threats and associated risks while enforcing CyberSecurity standards.

Unique Selling Proposition or Competitive Advantage:

Naoris Protocol makes networks safer as they grow, not weaker. It turns each device into a trusted validator node, creating a Decentralized Cyber Security Mesh enhanced by SWARM AI's response to cyber attacks in milliseconds. It ensures trust of data and compliance with security standards.

Challenges Faced During the Journey:

Current centralized cybersecurity relies on a static, 40-year-old ‘single point of failure’ model, that can be easily exploited by blackhat hackers, rogue organizations and nation-state bad actors who attack economies, endanger democracies and threaten businesses large and small, while stealing personal and sensitive data.

Global infrastructure, energy, supply chains, IT, financial, governmental, and military systems are constantly under some level of cyber threat or attack from malicious actors who can easily exploit the centralized approach.

Advice for Women Entrepreneurs:

Always believe in oneself and know that one is worth the opportunity which arises. They are on this journey for a reason and it is they, who were chosen to lead the development of the company, industry transformation, team development or fixing the customer pain.

Their role as a female entrepreneur is crucial so they should not give up when the first hurdle comes.
