SharkGate, a specialist in website cybersecurity, is revolutionizing the industry with its innovative approach to website protection. The company has built a vast threat intelligence database, powered by artificial intelligence (AI), which combines shared cyber attack data from multiple sources and updates it in real time. The fuel powering the solution is the SharkGate Token (SHARK), which is automatically rewarded to data providers in exchange for their contributions. One of the key features of SharkGate's approach is the concept of websites working together in mutual self-interest to fight against hackers. An attack on one website in the network triggers an immediate global immunity, protecting all other websites in the network from similar attacks. This collaborative approach creates a powerful defense system that is constantly evolving and staying one step ahead of hackers. SharkGate firewall is already protecting websites 24/7/365 by analyzing hundreds of millions of HTTP requests per day. In addition, the company's global cybersecurity team scans and cleans infected websites that sign up for their OneHourSiteFix service, and the feedback from these cleanings helps improve their malware and vulnerability scanners. One of the unique aspects of SharkGate's approach is the incentivization through tokenomics. Website owners who hold SHARK tokens are not only rewarded for providing attack data to Sharkgate, but they also receive discounts on SharkGate products and can take advantage of additional services provided by SharkGate in the future. This creates a win-win situation where website owners are incentivized to actively contribute to the threat intelligence database while also benefiting from enhanced cybersecurity measures. SharkGate's vision is to create one of the world's largest cybersecurity feeds of shared threat intelligence data, providing website owners and businesses with an advanced security solution that surpasses what is currently available on the market. The company's existing technology is already ahead of the competition, and with websites working together, SharkGate aims to keep cybersecurity always one step ahead of hackers. By taking a new approach to website security and leveraging the power of AI and crowdsourced threat intelligence, SharkGate is aiming to transform the website cybersecurity industry, similar to how Google transformed the search economy or how Uber and Airbnb disrupted their respective sectors. With its innovative approach and incentives through tokenomics, SharkGate will make next-generation cyber protection available to websites worldwide, providing a safer online environment for businesses and users alike.
