[Eecs_mscs] Canceled: EECS Research Seminar Talk-A Statistical Physical Approach to Web 3.0

[Hunter, Tiffany]

Abstract:

Information security in the present day is highly centralized, i.e. users have to trust third parties to ensure that their data is encrypted. Web 3.0 eliminates this problem entirely by removing the centralized power and using other methods of verification to determine the accuracy of information on the internet. However, a lack of data ownership isn't specific to the internet. Hundreds of millions of data breaches occur every year, including those carried out by social engineers; when a sense of urgency is created, users don't ask themselves "is this person phishing me?" and as humans regularly think about many things at once, it is easy for them to leave their personal belongings lying around, much less forget to encrypt their plaintext messages. The COVID-19 pandemic has influenced a surge in internet activity. In addition to an increase in time spent on social media, jobs and learning institutions have taken online-only platforms. A mass migration to online work and education renders a demand for trust, validation, and work-context management. Once knowledge and skills are acquired, they are permanent and cannot be transferred, duplicated, or stolen; users have complete ownership of their knowledge and skills, as they are non-fungible.
