Hyperledger Global Forum

While blockchain technology creates strong cryptographic controls securing the integrity of data, successful, cooperative blockchain networks must establish trust between a variety of independent entities to create overall trust.In this presentation, Scott Perry will discuss how trust is created in block chain systems and the varying layers (i.e. ledger, agent, credential exchange and governance) that add trust within interoperable parties and reliance to external blockchains within the web of trust.

As an active member of the Sovrin Goverance Working Group and author of the first robust trust assurance model for blockchains, he will discuss how all blockchains networks can add accountability within stakeholder roles to ensure that blockchains are trustworthy above the embedded cryptographic trust assertions.

The target of this presentation is leaders and participants in industry, jurisdictional and public utility blockchains who are seeking greater acceptance and assurance in the trustworthiness of their network.
