"Finally, a killer application of blockchain." - Will Jan, Outsell Analyst.

"Would you rather have $1, or a data asset you can sell for 1,000 times, over and over again?" This was one of the first questions Dave Sikora asked me in the interview. I lead with this because it really paints the importance of data security.

ALTR is offering blockchain-powered data security for the enterprise. The company is obsessed with restoring digital trust by transforming the way our data is monitored, accessed, and stored. We discovered ALTR through our analyst Will Jan, and it quickly made its way through the Outsell 300, to the Outsell 50 to watch, and to the Outsell Emerging Company Growth Tank, where the company walked away with a second place finish.

James Beecham founded this company with five other founders and now serves as the company's CTO. Dave Sikora joined soon after as the company's CEO. He has been through a number of technology revolutions and provides powerful insights into how the blockchain revolution is different. The three of us dive into the creation of ALTR, the future of cyber security, the current standing of blockchain in the industry, and where we'll be in the next five years as a result.

I had an amazing time with James and Dave and I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did.
