Breakthrough Proof System Collaboration Between Anaxi Labs and Carnegie Mellon University’s CyLab
Pittsburgh, United States, December 6th, 2024, Chainwire
Anaxi Labs, in collaboration with Carnegie Mellon University’s CyLab, the university’s cybersecurity and privacy institute, is proud to announce a groundbreaking compiler framework for cryptography that eliminates a long-standing impasse in the industry. The ability to build scalable applications with Zero-Knowledge technology, without fundamental trade-offs, has long been deemed unattainable. However, with this new development, the trifecta of scalable, cryptographically-secured, and decentralized applications is now within reach.
A Breakthrough in Cryptography with No Trade-Offs
The advent of blockchain technology, particularly platforms like Ethereum, has brought to light the importance of Zero-Knowledge (ZK) technology in enhancing security and scalability. The process of developing ZK proofs has traditionally been laborious, requiring extensive manual effort and posing significant security risks. This has hindered the widespread adoption of decentralized applications, especially in regulated industries like finance, healthcare, and artificial intelligence.
A Team Effort to Overcome Trade-Offs
In a collaborative effort, researchers from Carnegie Mellon University and Anaxi Labs have devised a revolutionary approach to streamline the development of ZK proofs. By automating the conversion of high-level software into simpler forms required for proof systems, the team has significantly improved performance and security while eliminating manual coding errors. This innovative method breaks down complex programs into manageable units, paving the way for seamless integration with various proof systems.
Unlocking New Possibilities in Decentralized Applications
The implications of this research are monumental across various industries. In finance, the enhanced performance and auditability facilitate real-time settlement of transactions, while in healthcare, privacy-preserving encryption tools address critical concerns around genetic data. Additionally, industries reliant on AI and critical infrastructures stand to benefit from decentralized solutions that offer high availability and minimal latency.
This collaborative effort between Anaxi Labs and CyLab represents a significant milestone in bridging the gap between academic research and real-world applications. By harnessing the power of cryptography, these institutions are paving the way for a future where decentralized applications are not only secure and scalable but also accessible to a wide range of industries.
