You Know Encryption… But Do You Know What’s Coming Next?

The encryption technology that allows secure communication over the internet is several-decades old. It still works, but other approaches have emerged that improve upon the status quo. Attribute-based encryption (ABE), for instance, moves beyond the “all-or-nothing” model of the prevailing paradigm, promising greater control, efficiency and utility. This TechNewsWorld article by Hideaki Ozawa, COO/CTO at

The Case for ABE in the IIoT

A lack of security in the industrial IoT (IIoT) can be costly. From interrupted factory lines to major disruptions in supply chains, the damage from a cybersecurity incident can be significant. Standard public key encryption (PKE) can reduce those risks. But an emerging, advanced form of PKE called attribute-based encryption (ABE) allows greater functionality, enabling

Kazu Gomi on Bio Digital Twins and the Future of Patient Care

In his latest contribution to Forbes, NTT Research President and CEO, Kazuhiro Gomi, discusses bio digital twins, one of the MEI Lab’s two main areas of focus. While the idea appears futuristic, Gomi notes that the related concept of digital twins is already well developed, and its component technologies are widely deployed. The technologies that
