Top 5 Key Points from the Podcast with Dr. Rachel O'Connell CEO of TrustElevate

1. Overview and Mission of TrustElevate:
   • TrustElevate aims to create a safer internet for children by verifying the ages of users under 16 and confirming parental responsibility. This is crucial for companies to comply with data protection laws regarding children’s data.
2. Methodology for Verification:
   • The verification process uses a zero-knowledge privacy model, where parents provide minimal information (child’s name, DOB, parent’s mobile number) that is checked against hashed, authoritative data sources without storing personal data.
3. Regulatory Environment and Compliance:
   • The importance of regulatory compliance is highlighted, noting that regulations like GDPR have increased scrutiny on how companies process children’s data. TrustElevate’s service helps companies navigate these regulations by verifying user ages and parental relationships.
4. Technological Innovation and Challenges:
   • TrustElevate employs AI and multi-factor authentication to verify details provided by parents. The discussion also touches on the limitations of age estimation technologies and the ongoing challenges posed by criminals using deep fakes and other methods to circumvent age verification measures.
5. Future Vision and Advice for Companies:
   • The conversation envisages a future where TrustElevate’s verification process is integrated into various services (e.g., social media, banking) to ensure children’s safety online. Companies are advised to adopt clear policies and collaborate across teams to meet their duty of care towards young users, emphasizing trust as a market differentiator.

Top 5 Key Points from the Podcast with Alexander Garcia Tobar, CEO of ValiMail.
Rising Issue of Email Spoofing and AI-Generated Disinformation: Alexander Garcia Tobar discusses the significant increase in email spoofing and fake messages, emphasizing the role of AI in creating realistic disinformation. This technology allows almost anyone to generate credible-looking content, posing serious challenges to discerning truth from falsehood.

Importance of Email Authentication: The core service of ValiMail., email authentication, is highlighted as a crucial countermeasure against the issue of email spoofing. This process ensures that only authorized entities can send emails on behalf of a company or individual, providing a binary, yes-or-no solution to verify email sources.

The Prevalence of Fake Emails: Tobar reveals a startling statistic: 89% of phishing attacks and a significant portion of cyber attacks begin with fake or spoofed emails. He emphasizes the need for widespread implementation of email authentication standards like DMARC to combat this threat.

Challenges in Email Authentication Implementation: Despite the rising adoption of email authentication, Tobar notes that many companies struggle to implement these protocols correctly. Only a small percentage of domains have successfully applied these measures due to the complexity of email systems and the need for expertise in the field.

ValiMail.’s Role and Mission: As the leader in the email authentication space, ValiMail. is actively involved in setting global standards and provides both free and paid services to help companies implement and manage email authentication effectively. Their mission is to enhance trust in email communication, which remains a primary mode of interaction in the digital age.

The podcast provides valuable insights into the challenges and solutions related to email security and the broader implications of AI in creating disinformation. Alexander Garcia Tobar's expertise offers a clear perspective on the importance of email authentication in maintaining digital trust and security.

Omar ElNaggar, founder and CEO of Weavechain , Weavechain brings enterprise big data to Web3. That’s impossible today because public blockchains don’t meet enterprise data governance standards, and no blockchains meet big data performance needs. Our middleware leaves the data in existing high performance databases and uses our smart hashing technology in coordination with a variety of blockchains that meet security needs. This unlocks basic Web3 benefits like tamper-proofing and built-in monetization, and connects Web2 companies to Web3 customers and more.
