Today, we are proud to announce a new leadership structure for confidentiality efforts to the Ethereum Foundation:
-
Igor Barinov joins as a coordinator of Confidentiality @ efGuide the strategy and alignment in the efforts focused on privacy, including PES and more. Igor has more than a decade of experience in Ethereum ecosystem as a founder of BlocScout, Gnosis Chain and Zkbob, and is an ardent defender of the open source and privacy.
-
Andy Guzman Will now be coordinator of (PSE) teamtaking over Sam Richards and cryptography, research and development applied to the head. Andy has been with PSE / EF since 2022 and has managed various key products and strategy initiatives since.
Together, Igor and Andy will help guarantee that Ethereum’s confidentiality work is impactful, coherent and responsible.
A structure built around real use cases
Inside the Privacy @ EF cluster, PSE organizes its work through research, product, engineering and operations, with prospects now in place to focus on each dimension. This structure supports three main private life pillars:
-
Private readings: Allow individuals and institutions to question, authenticate and browse unattended.
-
Private writings: Secure actions such as payments, governance and transfers against unwanted disclosure.
-
Private prouvance: Make the evidence effective, portable and usable through contexts such as identities, data portability and proof on the customer side.
Each pillar supports the needs of users, developers and institutions. They help individuals to avoid damage to metadata leaks and are necessary for institutions to comply with data protection standards. They compete in our private financial information and choose the data to disclose while protecting our identity from theft.
Private readings, written and proving the form of the main constituent elements of confidentiality which later allows the protection of your pay check, to prove your age to secure the institutions of data violations.
Learn more in the PSE roadmap.
Why this counts
For Ethereum to become a foundation of the civilizational infrastructure, privacy cannot be an abstract research alone. It must be organized, resourceful and deployed on a large scale.
If you build with privacy or explore the cases of use of confidentiality, we invite you to connect with Igor Or Andy And join the 700+ Projects Build in ONCHAIN’s intimacy space today.
Confidentiality is normal and Ethereum is for privacy.
