Former UK National Security Adviser Sir Mark Lyall Grant joins L3COS as demand for blockchain solutions grow - Seite 2

Sir Mark added:

"I am delighted today to be joining the L3COS Advisory Board. L3COS is a dynamic, future-oriented company.

"It is clear that one of the key drivers of future economic growth will be the secure digitisation of large parts of major economies, creating greater efficiency and productivity.

"The COVID-19 crisis is already further accelerating this trend. L3COS has spent six years building a unique quantum-safe technology with rich functionality, which can play a central role in supporting digitisation for governments, businesses and individual citizens. I look forward to helping L3COS to take forward this exciting project."

L3COS

L3COS, (pronounced "Leckoss") brings the benefits of blockchain to the wider economy. It enables full governmental and regulatory oversight, but is applicable for businesses large and small as well as for individuals. It is the first and inevitable, but essential, step in making the world fully digitalised.

L3COS has developed the first quantum-safe blockchain operating system with sufficient scale and speed to meet the growing needs of central banks around the world. Its blockchain technology is immutable, fully auditable, traceable and transparent, all of which makes fraud, money laundering or other black-market financing impossible. Blockchain is now a tried and tested technology with up to half of the leading companies in the US, and many others around the globe already deploying it in their systems and process management.

L3COS (Level 3 Consensus Operating System) is the next generation blockchain. It operates on three levels of consensus, one for each of government, business and society. The operating system facilitates secure, regulated and digitalised activity for countries, and their sovereign institutions such as central banks, for corporates and for individuals. This triple layer consensus system is quantum-safe, cost effective and can digitalise transactions faster and with greater transparency.
