The HAT Microserver is referenced globally as a world-class digital infrastructure for self-sovereign data and privacy.
Overview
The Internet that we use today is really very much “work-in-progress”, and the problems we face mostly revolve around data and its usage.
What is personal data?
Everything on the Internet that is personal to you is your data: words, photos, music, locations, financial transactions - everything. You generate this data when you fill out forms, create user accounts on apps and websites, interact on them, or use social media or e-commerce websites.
While we like to think we own our data, the reality is that data is owned (ie the IPR) by the owner of the technology that generates and collects it.
Ownership and control
Today the companies that give us websites, mobile applications and more, store and protect our personal data for us (we call them “centralized” systems). Our data sitting in these systems become stale, non-representative, more vulnerable to hacking and very challenging to create more value. The HAT Microserver is a technology enable the separation of data storage from the service of an application. It was created and researched into from over $50m of UK research to enable everyone to not only legally own their data but can create value with it. By having our own HAT Microserver, whether it’s small businesses, individuals or enterprises, we are able to have a better functioning market for data and ensure data usage is safe, secure, and well governed.
The HAT Microserver and self-sovereign data
The HAT Microserver is an advanced cloud-native technology that confers full legal IP rights of of data to individuals or any legal entity through the ownership of a decentralised data server. The data within becomes a new asset class called “self-sovereign data” which has the unique property of IP rights to individuals even if the data was generated elsewhere (e.g. banks, hospitals etc). This enable data producers to better mobilise customer while being able to maintain the source of truth. Often, data producers are compensated for the use of that data. HAT microservers are hosted by Dataswyft and are fully portable across cloud systems. The HAT technical code is fully open sourced but its deployment to create self sovereign data as an asset class and its protocols to simplify data governance is part of Dataswyft’s technology patent that is pending.
