At OpenAVN, we believe in innovation that complements the growing trends in the market, which will lead to more secure products and services as a sum outcome. OpenAVN - Open Anti-Virus Network was created with the intention to solve a particularly hard classification problem that exists in security that is critical to the upcoming generation of computing. It uses Blockchain and AI to create a widespread network to collect diversified samples globally, enables us to foster an ecosystem that can serve the market exponentially faster than any other existing antivirus products.On average, the Antivirus Industry takes anywhere between 25-30+ days to identify, isolate, and remediate viruses and malware. The entire industry depends on malware lab partnerships, and public communities to gather malware samples and signatures.

A Blockchain and Smart Contract based network is used to triage, classify, and incentivize the collection of malware samples using crowdsourcing and machine learning.We have combined Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain, and Cybersecurity to provide the most cutting edge digital threat prevention and continuous protection the industry has to offer. OpenAVN is designed to act both as an endpoint protection software and as a Service/API Gateway to realtime threat intel. Our customers can either utilize our software to protect their devices and networks or can plug into our ecosystem to consume the malware signatures and digital threats identified by the Blockchain platform in realtime.
