BMW i Ventures Invests in VIA Science to Bring Next Generation Data Protection to Enterprise Security  
 

As vehicles become increasingly sophisticated, they continuously produce and gather vast amounts of information about their performance and their drivers. Whether you're an individual owner or operate a fleet, safeguarding this data is essential.

The Importance of Trust

Most organizations rely on passwords and two-factor authentication to secure sensitive information. Yet BMW is partnering with a company that embraces a Web3 methodology for data protection. VIA's approach goes beyond simply guarding access points—it protects data wherever it lives, preventing hackers from exploiting cloud vulnerabilities or slipping in through hidden backdoors.

Transparency Helps to Build Trust

VIA builds confidence among data creators and users by establishing a transparent transaction network. It records every transaction in a log that can be audited and verified, ensuring all parties agree on the information generated by a vehicle's systems. This openness also enables continuous checks for security weaknesses.

The Beauty of Decentralization

By using a decentralized network, only authorized individuals can view designated segments of your data. For example, vehicle diagnostics might be restricted to service personnel rather than accessible to sales or marketing teams. Additionally, this system supports account structures that eliminate the need for passwords while remaining resilient against both traditional and quantum threats.
