Fujitsu to launch blockchain system to secure data sharing

Tuesday 6 June 2017 15:00 CET | News

Fujitsu, a Japan-based IT company, has released a new blockchain-based system for securely exchanging data.

The launch aims at providing a safe data exchange for companies and organizations that do not have a central hub for it. The systems’ release comes after Fujitsu debuted a blockchain product centered on secure document exchange. The system is based on the open-source Hyperledger Fabric, the company planning to launch a commercial-scale version of the system later in 2017.

Fujitsu has helped other companies in Japan experiment with the tech. In 2016, the company took part in a cross-border payments trial involving banking group Mizuho, according to CoinDesk.
