Speaking at the Borderless Web3 event in Port Harcourt today, Primidac focused on the critical yet under-discussed issue in Web3: the foundational need for cybersecurity and embedded systems.
The session underscored that robust cybersecurity measures and seamless integration of embedded systems are crucial for building a secure, scalable, and resilient decentralized ecosystem.
Primidac explained that Web3 demands rigorous cybersecurity to protect digital assets and identities while enabling growth and innovation. Embedded systems, he noted, play a vital role in establishing trust among users, a foundational component of the Web3 movement. These systems work in tandem with security measures to ensure user trust and ecosystem scalability by shielding Web3 applications from malicious threats and safeguarding user privacy.
He highlighted key cybersecurity applications that are central to Web3, starting with smart contract security, which prevents code vulnerabilities that could be exploited by attackers. He also explored zero-knowledge proofs—an approach that allows information to be verified without exposing the user’s identity—alongside secure management of decentralized identities.
Moving to embedded systems, Primidac discussed advanced features like secure hardware, quantum-resistant cryptography, and decentralized IoT nodes, all of which fortify Web3 against potential threats.
These elements make Web3 solutions more tamper-proof and reliable, creating a secure foundation for applications like healthcare data management, real-time logistics tracking, agricultural data collection, and transparent supply chain monitoring.
The session rounded up by encouraging participants to consider cybersecurity careers within Web3, emphasizing that as the decentralized ecosystem expands, so too will the demand for secure, trustworthy applications.
