Blockchain Security - A Conversation with Jacques Dahan of Cyvers

We welcome Jacques Dahan, Chief Revenue Officer of Cyvers, a startup providing blockchain security services.   John and Jacques discuss aspects of crypto- and blockchain security - what types of attacks are there, what are the vulnerable points of crypto exchanges and implementations?  Where and how can they be stopped?  This is a very new and fascinating area of information security, and one we expect to see much more of in the coming years. We touch on the development of increasing regulatory interest in the security and reliability of the cryptospace, and the future role of crypto as a key element of a token-based society and industry far beyond just cryptocurrency and -lending - why and how must smart contracts and other uses of blockchain be secured, to avoid risk to critical areas of the economy? Full disclosure:  Cyvers is a portfolio investment of a consortium John Salomon is a member of (https://cyberclub.london) - which in turn is a great source of ideas for video topics.
