Atsign’s Co-founder and CTO, Colin Constable, Interviewed in SafetyDetectives about the atProtocol

 

Making the Internet Safer

Colin, our CTO and Co-founder, recently sat down with SafetyDetectives to discuss IoT security, online identity, and our patent-pending, open-source atProtocol.

Colin answers questions like, How did he and co-founder, Kevin Nickels, come up with the innovative atProtocol?
