We are in the era of Technology Revolution, Digital
Transformation, Digital Innovation, and Industrial
Revolution 4.0 where we are experiencing technologies
are scaling without humans and bringing true operational
resilience in terms of user experience, automation, and
ROI.
While we are advancing on many technological and
industrial verticals, one area which is still untapped
is Email Ecosystem.
Emails are our regular, day-to-day life communication
channel and it is not evolving and innovating as
expected. We are still using email transfer protocols
which were designed in 1982 and were last updated in
2008. We are experiencing a monopoly of big tech giants
using their email platforms with little or no
encryption, privacy, and security.
To eliminate these pain points and revolutionize the
Email Ecosystem completely, the Decentralization of
Blockchain technology stands as the main alternative.
So,
How we can leverage Blockchain and Decentralization to
redesign, revamp and revolutionize Email Ecosystems?
1. Replacement of Existing Protocols
We can begin by replacing existing and traditional email
transfer protocols such as SMTP/IMAP which are
cumbersome and hackable in nature with Blockchain
Technology.
With Blockchain, we can store the emails/messages on
shared ledgers similar to any crypto transaction. It
will easily replace current email transfer protocols
with Blockchain and we can inherit all the benefits of
Blockchain technology here which is getting recognized
as one of the most secure and trustworthy technologies
in the current market.
2. Encrypting Emails with Cryptography
Current email platforms do provide Transport Layer
Security but are it enough to secure your emails from
breaches?
In TSL Encryption, the connection between Sender and
Receiver is encrypted which is subjected to the receiver
having TSL enabled at his end. In this way, one email
server can send a message to another email server and
TSL can encrypt the connection.
But the only the connection is encrypted in this case,
payload data or actual email content is still
un-encrypted which makes it vulnerable to breach.
To cope with this problem, we can leverage open source
Cryptography Algorithms such as xSalsa20 Stream Cipher
Algorithms, which can cryptographically encrypt the
messages and make it next to impossible to decrypt with
external intervention and breach.
3. No need to compromise Privacy
Although current email providers mention they don’t scan
email content exclusively to collect information for
their advertising machines, data from our accounts is
used to serve advertisements in our mailbox. By changing
the Privacy Policies of these open-source platforms,
they are collecting as much information as they can,
which is compromising our privacy to great extent.
With Blockchain and Decentralization where all the data
is encrypted and stored on a distributed network, no
single authority can dictate our data and we can
experience enhanced privacy through the same.
4. Replacing Centralized Storage with Decentralization
Current email providers have centralized storage where
all the information and data is stored which makes it
vulnerable to a single point of failure. We have seen
several instances in the past where such centralized
servers are compromised and suffered through
catastrophic failure, accidentally burn to the ground,
and even seized by a third party.
With Decentralization, where nodes are distributed along
with the network and encrypted documents are stored on a
decentralized IPFS network, we are eliminating this
possibility of a single point of failure and increasing
the security layers through Decentralization.
With consideration of all of the above pain points,
problems and concerns, we have come up with
Revolutionary, Immutable, Cryptographically secure, and
World’s First,
Join us in the journey of securing your Emails with
Decentralized Email and be part of our Decentralized
Email Ecosystem!
