California DMV Implementing Blockchain Tech

in blockchain •  last month 



California’s Department of Motor Vehicles will implement a blockchain to prevent vehicle title fraud. They will use Ava Labs’s Avalanche blockchain to allow over 39 million residents to claim and access their vehicle titles.

The online service is intended to cut down on fraud and reduce the workload for DMV offices to process the requests.

Love it or hate it, cybersecurity must adapt with technology innovation. With AI and quantum soaking up the spotlight, we cannot forget there are a host of other architectures making their way onto the stage. As new digital tools deliver better services at lower costs, they will be quickly embraced by the markets and require additional oversight to ensure the security, privacy, safety, and reliability.

As a general fan of blockchains for attestable record keeping, I think it is a good direction and a great early use-case for Web3 technology at a state level. As strong as the inherent security benefits are, a lot depends on the implementation. Ultimately, blockchains will still require cyber protection and oversight.
