Nillion, a privacy security network known for its innovative blind computing technology, has announced a strategic partnership with stc Bahrain. This collaboration marks the integration of Nillion’s advanced privacy technology into real-world Web2 applications, aimed at advancing privacy solutions across the Middle East.
In the initial phase of the partnership, stc Bahrain will deploy nodes on Nillion’s blind computing network, PETnet. As a decentralized privacy platform, PETnet leverages privacy-enhancing technologies such as multi-party computation to ensure secure data storage and the processing of sensitive information. stc Bahrain will be the first telecom operator to run nodes on the Nillion network, contributing to the increased decentralization and security of PETnet.
Additionally, Nillion will join stc Bahrain’s Web3 Launchpad program as a Pearling Path partner. This partnership will enable stc Bahrain to utilize Nillion’s blind computing network to develop scalable applications. By combining Nillion’s secure computing solutions with stc Bahrain’s telecom infrastructure and Bahrain’s favorable data embassy laws, the partnership aims to set new standards for high-value data management and protection across Web2 applications.
Founded by Conrad Whelan, a former engineer at Uber, Nillion is the first decentralized blind computing network designed to store, transmit, and process high-value sensitive data in an encrypted state throughout its lifecycle. With its Orchestration Layer, Nada language compiler, and dual-layer network architecture, Nillion enables developers to build privacy applications easily, ensuring decentralization while supporting a wide range of applications including AI, data markets, medical analytics, privacy DeFi, and more.
