Novam is an A.I.-based cybersecurity platform. It was inspired by the human immune system to change the way we think about cybersecurity, in an agnostic, autonomous, self-detecting, self-healing approach. Novam goal is to protect IoT devices in connected environments with connectivity, security, scalability, and adaptability in mind. At the core NOVAM monitors and mitigates Internet-of-Things (IoT) cyber threats using a combination of distributed ledger technology (DLT), artificial intelligence (AI) and system defense techniques. The Novam (MNVM) is an Ethereum-based (ERC-20) cryptocurrency. Every message sent through NOVAM is digitally signed with the private key of the NOVAM node. All internode traffic is encrypted with TLS. This ensures that eavesdroppers cannot intercept the message – plus, guarantees that every message is from the address that claims to have sent it.
