Cybercrime inflicted losses of $298 billion on German companies in 2024, with 90% of businesses expecting further damages. Sensitive data like intellectual property and user credentials are primary targets, highlighting the urgent need for secure and scalable data infrastructure. While blockchain technology shows promise for data security, its application in enterprise data management struggles with scalability and access. Centralized systems expose organizations to vulnerabilities, as evidenced by significant breaches such as one experienced by an NPD company in mid-2024. DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks) seeks to empower enterprises by offering decentralized solutions that mitigate risks associated with centralized systems. These systems promise data privacy, sovereignty, and scalability. Solutions like CESS focus on decentralized storage and ensure robust data security, even against sophisticated cyber threats. As decentralized infrastructure evolves, it can redefine data management practices for businesses and governments, ultimately reducing cyber risks and fostering innovation in the data-driven economy.
