Data collaboration could be multi-year efforts and most of the time not worth its ROI because of the costs and the security/privacy risks involved. Decentriq built avato, a data collaboration and analysis platform-as-a-service based on the bleeding edge of applied cryptography ensuring maximum security and privacy while maintaining performance and ease of use. They will present it at the MWC Barcelona next February. We asked CEO Maximilian Groth to give us his vision of the actual Mobile industry.

How is decentriq changing the Mobile industry?
Emerging technologies such as 5G, IoT and Artificial Intelligence have brought new threats to the mobile industry. An unprecedented data volume is expected in the new 5G era while data security, especially in the process of data collaboration and data processing is still an ongoing issue. Decentriq’s platform uses the latest advancements in hardware cryptography and privacy technologies to make data collaboration simple and secure. As the only European startup working in the Confidential Computing Consortium, decentriq advocates its technology’s use in ICT, ensuring state-of-the-art security and privacy.
 
How important is it to be in Barcelona at the MWC?
MWC Barcelona is the largest mobile event in the world and joining with the most impactive companies in the mobile industry would be a great opportunity for us to get to know the latest trend in an era of intelligent connectivity. We believe security and privacy as an important factor in the 5G era, and we are dedicated to helping people in the mobile industry to utilize the advancements of scalable computing, advanced analytics possesses, and immense benefits of 5G with confidential computing as a solution.
