RKVST named finalist in DCMS contest for UK’s Most Innovative Cyber SME 2022

RKVST showcases zero trust fabric for trustworthiness of shared data, devices and SBOMs at Infosecurity Europe 2022

Cambridge UK – May 30, 2022: Zero Trust fabric provider, RKVST has been shortlisted in the UK’s Most Innovative Cyber SME 2022 contest, run by the UK Government Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) in partnership with Infosecurity Europe and techUK. The overall winner will be announced at Infosecurity Europe 2022, which takes place 21-23 June at ExCeL London.

RKVST has created a SaaS platform built on blockchain technology that delivers provenance, governance and immutability to prove the trustworthiness of shared data, devices and software. It allows developers to continuously prove who did what, when and to verify and trust data or applications that originate outside organisations in order to boost trust, reduce risk and speed operations. RKVST can also be used to share and manage the Software Bills of Materials (SBOMs) that identify all components in a particular application and are increasingly driving cybersecurity initiatives. The US cybersecurity Executive Order 14028 signed in May 2021 catapulted SBOMs to the forefront of efforts to improve the security of software cyber supply chains with zero trust.

Jon Geater, says:

“Digital transformation offers so much to improve our way of life, our climate goals, and citizen wellbeing. But issues of trust in digital and connected systems – particularly infrastructure – are holding us back. RKVST zero trust fabric aims to bridge those trust gaps and enable safer, more trustworthy digital systems so that we can all enjoy a cleaner, greener, safer future. RKVST was founded specifically to solve some of the thorniest problems of trustworthy systems in areas DCMS is particularly also interested in, such as smart infrastructure, so to be recognised in this way is really important to us.”
